Not sure what to say?

Thank you for the music, kind sir.

Michael was the funniest, saddest and most profound songwriter I ever had the good fortune to know, His "Conjure Man "album is my all-time favorite CD in the world. We wrote a song together that never fails to make me laugh. Such glee in his music ! I wish more of us were as true to themselves as he was, and brilliant, but I guess tha't what made him such a genius.Moving so fast, that it's slow.

he said he'd call me, and he did...i was brand new in Nashville but i was from Mangum..2001 i met him at the bluebird and danged if he didn't call me, he said us okies gotta stick together..rip buddy

Michael was a singer and song-writer of exceptional talent and a super nice guy. I just found out this morning after posting a note to him on Facebook. My condolences to the family. I'm so sorry for your loss. Gordon Payne - The Crickets

I met you in 1978 at George's house, and am so glad we reconnected years later. I miss your humor and your daily Facebook messages from Planet Mike. Thank you for always encouraging me to write. You were one of a kind and very special. My condolences to your family and friends.
