Thanks for the fun times

After Cashman pistilli & West 2 albums they formed The Buchanan brothers & made 1 great Lp & 4-5 singles. Such a great album & Gene's finest work !!

Rip gene, thank you for all the wonderful music !! Tommy West has since joined you, but your old friend Terry Cashman is still here,,

Gene Pistilli was an amazing talent and we in Nashville will miss him beyond belief! Rest in Peace our brother Gene, we love you!!!

I don't know if there was a reason for this not being mentioned in this otherwise fine obituary for a wonderful talent, but back in the dark ages I was privileged to watch Gene as part of Cashman, Pistilli, & West in the Village in NYC. They were an amazing trio---truly one of the best and I will always have a warm spot in my heart for Gene. My smpathies to his family and all the many others who loved this guy.

Sorry for your loss.
Everyone in Fairview and Cliffside Park who knew Gene was proud of him.
A local kid with great talent was a rarity among
blue collar folks surrounded by embroidery factories and bread stores.
Rest in peace Gene.
