On July 14 & 15 1970, in mid-week, SF's nearly closed Family Dog on The Great Highway booked the great Terry Reid. #DavidLindley led his band. Cat Mother and @AceOfCupsBand were there, too. Why? Why a Tuesday and Wednesday? Great music, strange doings

Terry Reid's touring schedule during this period is very murky, so it's hard to draw a conclusion

Mornin' heads! Another gift from the algo. #davidlindley https://youtu.be/yLq9HgGP8G8

David Lindley was a model of musicianship. I have been enjoying watching his performances, particularly this performance on the oud, which (ironically) evolved into a blues--something- you wouldn't think would/should be played on an oud, given its cultural parentage. https://youtu.be/yLq9HgGP8G8 #RIP #davidlindley

#DavidLindley was an amazing, weird guy who loved weird guitars. RIP

One more thing about the late great #DavidLindley in time for tomorrow's #WeirdPride day. He was so obviously brilliant musically he didn't have to care at all about looking "cute." So he wore the most bizarre and garish shirts possible under that sly grin and rat's nest of hair.

Someone just read me a wonderful tribute (on Facebook) from dobro player Jerry Douglas to the late David Lindley and Wayne Shorter. Just goes to show, great music is beyond genre. There are no boundaries--just great music and great musicians.

A most adorable photo of late multi-instrumental genius #DavidLindley, front and center, with the Mad Mountain Ramblers (Steve Cahill, Bob Warford, and Chris Darrow), 1963. Before a tidal wave of LSD washed over a generation of #folk musicians. #music [via http://brunoceriotti.weebly.com/david-lindley--chris-darrow-1944-1966-pre-kaleidoscope.html]

@Verdantsquare Hearing about this one just knocked the wind out of me, the unexpected news came just moments after I'd heard the 100th snippet of the #FreeBird wailing riff heralding and paying tribute to Gary Rossington. This is exhausting. #rip #GaryRossington #DavidLindley #music #gonetoosoon

David Lindley has died at the age of 78. I first became aware of Lindley at the Troubadour one evening in 1972. He was there in support of Jackson Brown who was riding recent success of "Saturate Before Using". He played a blue violin practically the entire set. That evening I became a fan of David Lindley and began to notice his name on so many lp's. I have owned a copy of El Ray-X since it's release and it remains in rotation at home and in the car.
Play one, David, play on.

Extended arrangements and amazing solos.

Superb performance of #JacksonBrowne's ever-relevant "Lives in the Balance" with #DavidLindley, #DavidCrosby, and #GrahamNash. It breaks my heart that two of these men are now dead. The song and the struggle go on. #music https://youtu.be/98YG_xnz1zo

RIP KING OF POLYESTER

If you read one obituary for David Lindley, read this one.

And check out the videos, they've done a good job of representing his whole vast career and massive contributions and influence. Nothing like him. A rarely-heard but entirely convincing Jimmy Stewart impersonation, too.

David Lindley was a great talent and a great spirit. He could play any stringed instrument, and he played with some of the best. His passing is sad, but the fact that his family apparently had to sell t-shirts to pay for his medical expenses is a real tragedy.

David Lindley, verstarb vorgestern im Alter von 78 Jahren. 1982 spielte er wie auch Rory Gallagher und Eric Burdon beim #Rockpalast auf der #Loreley. Nicht zu vergessen, dass auch #BAP mit dabei war. Und am Ende kam es dann zu dieser legendären Jam-Session! 🤩
