We've lost Johnny Maestro, lead singer of the Crests & The Brooklyn Bridge. As a die-hard Rockabilly & a Doo-Wop fan, this one hits hard. I had the pleasure of seeing him several times & he was a fantastic performer right up til the end. I'm seriously heartbroken about this one. He played every year at Lead East in NJ & was really dynamic. He never stopped singing & could still hit every note. Off the stage, he was just a wonderful, genuine person who's really going to be missed. Godspeed my friend & thanks for the great tunes. :cry:
