My sympathies to the surviving family members of Colonel Abrams, house music extroaidenaire. I did his very first website (when he had none). It was a pleasure being a Colonel fan/promoter. Brian M, USA

I read about Colonel's death some time ago. Making it big as an entertainer in the industry is rough. The way he died was very tragic. He barely had a cent to his name. But, from what I've heard, Colonel made good music. It's such a shame he didn't get the recognition he deserved. May he RIP.
