BILLY EARL MCCLELLAND

When I was in high school in Auburn, AL I used to sneak out of the house to hear Billy Earl play at the local clubs. He was an incredible musician and charismatic performer and an inspiration to many guitar players, like myself.

When Billy Earl moved to Nashville to pursue a songwriting and recording career I was fortunate to be able to work with some of his former band members. And on a few special occasions Billy Early would come home and join us onstage for a few tunes. I believe...

I have followed Billy's musical achievements over the years thanks to the internet. I was always so proud that I grew up just a mile or so from Billy in Cusseta, Alabama. In fact, his mother was my school bus driver and I knew all his bothers. My thoughts are with his family at this time. As for Billy, I hope heaven has a hell of a band. Patsy Cotney Johnson

To my dear old friend, Ed Scaff.

He was a great and talented guy. I only knew him when we were teenagers but followed his path to the heights he worked his way up to. I know he will be missed but his music is everlasting and can bring us all a great deal of joy in the future.

Prayers are with the family & many friends of this very talented man. He will be missed.

will miss you brother

Our deepest sympathies. Larry and Denise Philpott.

Will be missed. His brother Paul and I were friends back in the rocking 70's!
