Topic: Corey Osborn
I recently found out that Corey Osborn, the great young Memphis blues guitar talent, was killed about 10 months ago in a car wreck at the age of 23. He was a regular at B.B. King's Blues Club in Memphis, and frequently played with well known acts, including Joe. When I was in Memphis, I caught Corey's set at B.B.'s and was impressed with his chops, tone and dedication to the blues tradition. Corey invited me to sit in with his band and we played "Everyday I Have The Blues" together, in addition to talking about all things blues and guitar. I am in shock that he has passed, and I recommend you check out his myspace page. RIP.
