More Owsley.

I’d like to share a few additional bits of information that I came across regarding Will Owsley since my initial post yesterday.  I forgot that he was “Grammy-nominated” Will Owsley, nominated for a Grammy for his engineering work on the Owsley album.

A fund has been set up for donations in Will’s memory – here are the details from Amy Grant:

Donations in honor and memory of Will Owsley can be made to: The Will Owsley Family Fund c/o Christ Community Church 1215 Hillsboro Road Franklin, TN 37069 He left behind two young sons and every dollar donated will be greatly appreciated by his grieving family. Important note: Make checks payable to Christ Community Church.

I made note of my huge love for The Hard Way within yesterday’s post, and as it happens, someone posted a nice FM recording yesterday from Nashville on Dimeadozen, recorded during his promotional activities for that album.  Looking at the 12 song setlist, I was excited to see the cover of Steely Dan’s “My Old School,” something that I had just read about in the past day, while reading various tributes to Will. (Actually, here’s one of the better ones that I came across, complete with a link to a vintage Owsley interview from ’99 – thanks to AZ for sharing the link with me.)

Here it is – I hope you enjoy it – thanks to the original poster.

Such a shame…

Sadly this power pop great (Will Owsley) passed away yesterday. Please check out his two great solo albums which you can find on Amazon for a great price. They are both worth it.
