Sorry to hear that. Hearing the name Climax Blues Band again brings back some great memories from the early 70s.

I'm sorry to hear that too. "Couldn't Get it Right" has always been one of my favorite songs from the seventies. Every time I hear it I think of Junior High school (That makes me old!)

RIP

I guess he's not Going to New York any more is he.

Sorry, couldn't resist that one.

Yep, for me they were an incredible band and influence on my blues rock side.

I know I still listen to them and dig the music to this day, as do the boyz.

RIP Mr. Cooper
