It s been over three decades since we lost a musical legend. When the news surfaced on the untimely passing of
Stevie Ray Vaughan in 1990, the musical world and those who followed his brilliant career were stunned beyond belief. I remember hearing the devastating story during the 11 o clock news and since I worked at a soft rock based adult contemporary format, I was unable to do an on-air tribute to this musical genius.
I had the luxury of playing such songs as Pride and Joy , Crossfire , The Things I Used To Do and his rocking rendition of the nursery rhyme Mary Had A Little Lamb when hosting a classic rock show in Connecticut (Thank you Rusty Mottola) it meant so much for me to spotlight his music.
