Buddy Miles passed away this week and we will certainly miss him and his unique style.

Buddy spent time playing with a lot of great musicians over the years including Jimi Hendrix and Carlos Santana. His voice was so unique that he is still remembered for animated commercials he did for the California Raisins years ago.

Here are some excellent sites that have great information on Buddy Miles and his career.

Steve Winwood Dirty City Video

Video: “Dirty City” from Steve Winwood’s forthcoming album ‘Nine Lives,’ featuring Eric Clapton. The CD is set to release on April 29th. Video posted on YouTube by winwoodonline

Two entire songs from the new album are streaming from Winwood’s website at stevewinwood.com. This song “Dirty City” reminds me of a cross between Blind Faith and Traffic.
