I have a lot of live concert DVDs. "El Mocambo" really rings a bell.

...the night he died.
Alpine Valley. They opened for Clapton, but then jammed with all the guy from both bands.
With our long drive (over 2 hours), we left 10-15 minutes early.
Woke up the next morning to hear on WGN-TV that he had died.
We just saw him playing about 8 hours before.

I just looked up when he died. It was 1990. I can't believe it's been 35 years! And he was 35 when he died.

He was around 5 weeks from turning 36. He was just a bit under 2 years older than me.
