Default Re: Red Shea has died-June 2008

It looks like the ninth anniversary of Red's passing got overlooked last year but having just been researching Buddy Holly items after watching a great documentary by Dion DiMucci (of the Bronx based Belmonts fame)on YouTube at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7M0TDAWcuRo
I googled and found an album produced by Shawn Nagy, who I see I had mentioned in this thread earlier, a great fan of Buddy's and Canadian rock music and with whom who I had stayed with when visiting Lubbock Texas during my epic North American tour in November 1999 (in three weeks I visited Montreal-Ottawa-Toronto-Denver-Lubbock-Clovis-The Grand Canyon-Phoenix-San Francisco and Vancouver)


it is featured on his website at
http://www.superoldies.com/featured/cra/cra1.html
Red & Les Trio - Marlene
Red & Les Trio - Pretty Miss Eyes Of Blue
Red & Les Trio - I Want Love, Not Sympathy
Red Shea - Moon Boogie Twist

and there are a trio of interesting videos fearturing Red Shea on YouTube in particular:-
Red & Les Trio - I Want Love, Not Sympathy (with Red Shea) 1959

actually the other on "The Claw" provides a far better video of Red's guitar prowess
