"Garden Party" made me very sad for him.

(41,138 posts)4. Finding and listening to the music was really enjoyable
because it's good material and it summons pleasant childhood memories.
I recall some about Nelson's life, the Harmons and the nasty marriage split years ago. But I'd forgot that he d. in a plane crash until I re-read his bio tonight. Quite sad; I briefly looked at a music video with his two grown sons. Life goes on.
