RIP Scotty Moore 1931-2016

And another music legend gone. Scotty Moore, Elvis Presley's guitarist during his early years has died. He's gone to play with the King once again...

Ahhh damn. That's terrible news.

Good God, I didn't know he was still alive.

Ditto.

Commiserations to his nearest and dearest.

^ The "Mandela Effect". Not quite, but somewhat similar.

Quiet understandable, seeing as he hasn't performed since '07, and his last appearance (as far as i know) is '13. Come to think of it, it's been a while since I last heard of DJ Fontana...

On a side note, another Elvis affiliate, Chips Moman passed away weeks before Scotty.

Nor me. How surreal - I was playing his Hound Dog solos live just two nights ago. Very sad.
