A beautiful tribute. I've been spinning my favorite Jimmy Buffett album on and off all week.
And yes, I know what you mean. There are names that give me cold dread to think about losing, one in particular. So much so that I'm not even going to say the name out loud. We didn't know them personally, and yet of course we do. Because an artist's work, if it's worth anything, is the most authentic and personal expression of who they are.
Wishing you flip flops that don't blow out, smooth sands devoid of pop tops, and a Havana daydream.
It sounds cliche but it's really true. There is no one to fill their shoes. And we are in deep trouble without them. Because when the music of a culture dies, that's it. Game over.

I hear you about being nervous mentioning names. As the generation I listen to gets older, I get very nervous about it as well.
Always Havana Daydreaming over here. I still need to find that shaker of salt and meet Captain Tony for a drink.
