    I, literally just last night, was just exposed to David Lindly through a very hip radio station in western Washington, and I have not stopped searching and listening to his music since....I'm 54...better late than never. And now I understand he has left us behind. My life is richer for hearing his music. R.I.P. David and thank you.

      I first discovered David Lindley playing his lap steel with Jackson Browne's band on 1970s TV appearances. Then My wife and I got to see him live at the 1990 Seattle Bumbershoot Arts Festival, alongside singer/guitarist Ry Cooder (available on UA-cam).

    In 1992, my acoustic guitar manufacturing company, La Jolla Luthiers, displayed at the Winter NAMM show in Anaheim. Through a friend of a friend, we met Mike Kenneally, who was hoping to get free tickets into the show. So, we made a deal with Mike that if he would spend a couple of hours demonstrating our line of acoustic guitars in our display booth, we'd give him 1 of our 2 guest pass tickets. Mike agreed and mentioned that he knew David Lindley and that David was also hoping to get tickets into the show. So, we made the same deal with David. At the time, Mike was an up and coming musical entity who played around the San Diego music scene. I knew of David from his work with Jackson Browne, El Rayo X, etc. We were obviously thrilled to have such talented players demonstrating our instruments but it didn't strike me until later of just how iconic that moment was. RIP David. The music world will be a little less without you.

    SO... here's David Lindley & most of his band El-Rayo-X...w David Sanborn....I met them all in 1988 - Edmonton & Calgary on their tour thru....We all went to a House party after the show in Calgary where I talked to David. I told him I practiced my alto to his amazing stellar solos on Jackson Browne's albums....He replied " That's interesting... cause I practiced my guitar playing to alto sax players....like Coltrane & Charlie Parker -The Bird".....we shook hands and chatted often thru out the evening into the daybreak!! That house musta held 100 or more people in it. I'll never forget hanging with those laidback alley cats from California~~~~~Rest well my dear ole friend~~~You did good.

      Lou Salute Warren was a big fan. He is credited on six of Warren Zevon’s albums and if you listen you can hear him uncredited on others. I wouldn’t be against him having recorded on Cello. I think he is a virtuoso on anything with strings.

    Thanks for posting this great video, which I just viewed for the first time! What a great take on this classic song. Damn, even though I'm going to listen to every recording David Lindley has ever done until the day I die, I'm saddened he's no longer with us to keep sharing his musical genius with us. Y'know, as great a musician as David is, I'm impressed by how he avoided the solo spotlight and instead let it shine on his fellow musicians in the band.
