Walt Parazaider, one of the founders of the band Chicago, died a few days ago at 81, from complications of Alzheimers.
The band issued a statement which noted in part: "A Rock & Roll band with horns was Walt's idea. He put the band together and they rehearsed in the basement of his mother's home. He is also the one who did the hard work to book shows for the young, unknown band, performing top 40 covers at local bars in and around Chicago. We are forever grateful for his contributions. Perhaps his greatest gift was bringing people together. This amazing music may have never been heard had it not been for Walt's vision."

RIP, Mr. Parazaider, and thanks for the excellent sounds. Condolences to your fans, friends, bandmates, family and loved ones.

I can remember, as a young kid, getting a Columbia House add and thinking what a great deal. (Ok, like I said, I was young.)
Well, one of the albums was from Blood, Sweat and Tears. I almost wore the grooves out on that one.
I was saddened by the death of David Clayton-Thomas, yesterday at the age of
84.

Rest in peace.


Song kinda fits now. Sadly.
