[Slowhand] Norton Buffalo dies

[Mel Boss]

I was so bummed to learn that Norton Buffalo died last Friday of complications from advanced lung cancer (that was only diagnosed in September). Norton was most known for his virtuoso harp and vocals in the Steve Miller Band, but I knew him best for his collaboration with Roy Rogers. I met him at the old Freight and Salvage venue in Berkeley a few years ago - so charming, kind and humble. His passing is a horrid loss in the music world (sob).
