that's sad to hear, RIP
i think one of the most distinctive riffs is the one on For Lovin Me
i never was certain which licks were done by Bruce Langhorne vs David Rea on that album.... which songs did David play (or not play) on that album?
we played a Tribute gig in Toronto to a wonderful listening and singalong audience the very night he passed away....
EMR, For Lovin Me & Steel Rail Blues (all off of "Lightfoot!") went over real well
cool, it would be great to hear a sample of some of those funny stories
here are some '68 '70 images of Rea I'd stumbled on at the amazing YorkU archive site and posted some time ago, and I think they they are worth repeating
