RIP Kinky Friedman
So long Kinky. Almost certainly the first person to write a comedy song about an active shooter situation.
Cobra handling and cocaine use are a bad mix.
Bassist Tom Fowler, best known for playing on many of Frank Zappa's most popular albums (Over-Nite Sensation, Apostrophe, Roxy and Elsewhere, One Size Fits All among others) passed away yesterday.

Tom Fowler was my favorite Zappa bassist. RIP.
It looks like Arthur and Rhea's confirmations are all we are likely to get. RIP Tom. Fantastic bassist in many people's favorite Zappa lineup. Also played on Steve Hackett's 'Please Don't Touch' album.
Tom Fowler was an incredible bass player. RIP.
I heard he passed as soon as he entered hospice on July 2nd. (From Jimmy Johnson).. RIP

The bassist Jimmy Johnson? Sad news but good that you heard from him. (Johnson and Tom's brother Walt Fowler play with James Taylor.)
I’m in another online forum where Jimmy is active. It’s not about his work….more about our mutual admiration of Alembic basses. A real down to earth guy. In that forum, he is always ready to help others with their basses.

I recently watched a dvd from The Band From Utopia to honour the late Ed Mann. Tom Fowler was also in that band....
RIP
Tom Fowler also played in Jean Luc Ponty's band for a few albums after Zappa, and played with Ray Charles for several years.
