I just read on another site that Bluesman Otis Clay has passed away from a heart attack. Don't know any more details.

Its not been a great start to year as regards deaths and Otis is the one I will miss the most. Really great soul singer.

This is sad news. I only learned of Otis Clay thru Pandora, he was a very fine soul singer.

very recent video of Otis in the Royal Studio recording Trying To Live My life Without You with familiar names from Hi.... the Hodges brothers for example...

Does anyone think this track may have influenced Lenny Kravitz for his track Are You Gonna Go My Way?

I think around 1.05 in the song it sounds quite similar.
