I was distraught when he died.

He was so kind, humble and appreciative of the fans. Wow. I really miss him.

Of course!

i went through a tough few yrs, going back to school in my 50’s, straining my marriage. i had about 10 of steve’s albums on my phone. listen commuting downtown. every day a different song spoke to my day.
since jt’s death, i must have listened to his albums 1000 times. know all the words.
amazing song writers, both.

I've loved him all my life

love 'em

Such a beautiful voice and soul.

I'd also toss in Cy Curnin, David Byrne, & Joe Satriani.
In jazz, Monk.

I love their voices & their sense of humor & their timelessness.

Both "American Tune" and "The Boxer" speak to me especially.

aka Jeffrey Hyman.

Jeffrey had all kinds of things going on being Jeffrey/Joey.
He was a kind person, that counts for a lot.
