Great band, sad news.  Good night WALTER.

truly a great band, and a great guitarist. Such variety of styles and musicianship. In recent recent years Ive begun to appreciate their music more and more. There are a couple of songs that ive always liked and didnt know it was by them. Back in the day, "Reeling in the years" was one of the first basslines that I learned. I am still fascinated by that song. Its lyrics are so meaningful and profound in a simple way. I could never get anyone to jam on it though. RIP.
