I'm sure Eric will be missed. I've played many gigs with him, and we laughed it up at all of em ... His funniest line was: Shhhh, I'm improvising, and the time the inflated automobile sign deflated during one of his famous improvs. What a laugh he had ... I will miss you indeed my friend. TEd,(Mr. Bass) ...
