Boston born founder of "Crawdaddy Magazine", Paul Williams, has passed away.
As a teenager in the 60's and 70's, and over the top fan of all things music, I probably spent more time reading ABOUT music than playing it. See? I had my head up my ass even then!
I was an avid reader of Crawdaddy, Creem, Circus, Rolling Stone, Guitar Player, Downbeat, Rock Scene, Hit Parader and, most likely, to no one who knows me's surprise, National Lampoon.
Had I spent all that time practicing my instrument, rather than reading about it, I may have attained what I had yearned to be ... a really marginal bass player.
Rest in Peace, Mr. Williams ... and thank you.
