RIP Dave Mason - "Feelin' Alright"
The stellar guitarist and songwriter passed away on April 19 at the age of 79, having retired from live performance last year due to ill health.
He leaves quite a legacy, having started out with Traffic, and played with many big names over the years, including Hendrix, Clapton, Fleetwood Mac, The Rolling Stones and Delaney & Bonnie, for whom he wrote their seminal song, "Only You Know and I Know".
If he hadn't crossed your radar, his Wikipedia article gives his backstory: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Mason
Here he is with an all-star band with parts recorded individually during the COVID lockdown, playing one of his more famous compositions, "Feelin' Alright".
His respect and popularity can be measured by the names collaborating with him here: Mick Fleetwood, Sammy Hagar, Michael McDonald, John McFee, Tom Johnston, Pat Simmons, John Cowan, Alvino Bennett, Rob Arthur and Pat Simmons Jr.
Joyous sounds. RIP.
