This is sad. I've seen Brown play many times in New Orleans and he was a helluva performer and guitarist.

I always liked how he refused to be pigeonholed into a category. He played country, blues, zydeco and many blends of those. He was fiesty and tough and did things his way.

I imagine he could whup 10x his weight in Dylans and Mikey Jacksons or any of those big stars who made all the money.
