Ahh man..we kinda just were stunned. The gentleman that gave me my first bass way back when. Co wrote some songs with him. Not a big country fan but KR is fantastic to me. He used to come to Clair brothers & Tait Towers in Lititz PA when they were setting up his big tours back in 70' & 80's & yuo could catch a glimpse of him. He didnt hide like most stars & would sit down at table with people. Was dif time back then but he was nice to the fans. RIP
Sad news indeed.
His music was everywhere in the 60's & 70's.
Country stations, pop stations, easy listening stations.
Nary a soul alive that hasn't heard his songs.
