I am saddened to pass on the news that my friend David left the planet this morning, March 3. Thank you to everyone who purchased a tee and donated to the fundraiser. It will help his girls — his wife Joanie and his daughter Rosanne — not have to think about money at this sad time. Bills are still pouring in and there will of course be final expenses. I thought of turning this off but have been encouraged to keep it going for his girls, so I will.

David Lindley performed on five Jackson Browne albums from 1973 to 1980 and they recorded the ‘Love Is Strange: En Vivo Con Tino’ album together in 2010.

David worked with Graham Nash on ‘Songs For Beginners’, Linda Ronstadt on ‘Heart Like A Wheel’, ‘Prisoner In Disguise’ and ‘Simple Dreams’, Rod Stewart of ‘Atlantic Crossing’ and ‘A Night On The Town’, Bob Dylan on ‘Under A Blood Red Sky’ and for Australia Jimmy Barnes’ ‘Freight Train Heart’.
