Title: RIP Mearl Saunders
Post by: kindm's on October 24, 2008, 04:31:20 pm

got the news a few hours ago. Such a bummer. Was lucky enough to see some shows and got a chance to say hello and shake the mans hand several years ago. He played a solo show just up north from us at this tiny place, maybe like 40 - 50 people, sit down type of place. Was amazing listening to him tell stories and play.

Another great gone.

Merl Saunders passed away this morning from complications related to the stroke which he suffered in 2002.
