Some of you may not have heard the sad news that Don Covay passed away Saturday (31st). The news came via a Facebook posting from Don's friend and recent MD, Jon Tiven. It seems that Don had suffered from ill health since his stroke in the 1990s, and this has now taken its toll. Don, as you may know, was my first soul 'idol' and the reason for my entry into the world of music journalism, this as founder/secretary of the Don Covay Fan Club in 1966.
