We Rockabilly/Rock n Roll fans lost another legend. However, thats nothing compared to the loss felt by his family and friends. So I send all of them my most heartfelt condolences. Thank you for sharing him with the rest of the world so we could enjoy the greatness of his music. Ill continue to play it for the remainder of my days! Rest In Peace, Mr. Duvall!

Our condolences to Sandy and family. My boys established a pen pal relationship with Mr. Duvall, based on their love of his music and the 50s lifestyle. He reciprocated by sending them CDs of his music and a personally recorded cassette of him singing for them. Around that time, I was in the Fort Worth area on a business trip. I called him and, without ever having met me, invited me into his home. He gave an acoustic concert and entertained me in his garage/den. He and his wife Sandy then took me to dinner in a local restaurant. Ill never forget that amazing experience. I was hoping to return the hospitality, should he ever visit California. Not only an incredibly talented performer/icon, but a true gentleman. The epitome of class.

So very saddened to hear of Huelyn's passing. I've been a longtime fan and recent friend of Mr. Duvall, having had the good fortune to enjoy his music, talk with him about his incredible career in rockabilly/ rock n roll music and even see him perform at music festivals around the world.
