Details:
If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance that you knew Buddy Blue as an original member of the Beat Farmers, and as a solo artist, producer, and music journalist of the highest order. He was certainly all of those things. He was also my friend.
Of course, Buddy had a LOT of friends. As charismatic as he was talented, Buddy was invariably the coolest guy in the room. Still, he made each of his friends feel special, as if they were his BEST friend. I know that those who frequented the guestbook at Buddy’s website all felt that way. Fans from across the globe found their way to https://www.tradebit.com, and stuck around to engage in banter inane, profane, and profound with Buddy and the international cast of characters he had drawn.
Most of these people would never have the privilege of meeting the man in person, but they all loved him, and he loved them back. On April 2, 2006, Buddy Blue left us far too soon, as none of us was quite done with him.
Following Buddy''s passing, Richie “The Flying Hippo” Evans, a guestbook veteran from Scotland, suggested that the musically inclined members of the guestbook (of which there were many) ought to record covers of Buddy-penned tunes, in tribute to our late friend. What has resulted is a startlingly eclectic album made up mostly of contributions from the folks at the Buddy Blue Guestbook, but with additional tunes from Romy Kaye, The Farmers, and a few others.
“Goldmine…The Songs of Buddy Blue” is a tribute to our dear friend, gone but never to be forgotten. Proceeds from record sales will assist in the funding of the education of Lulu, Buddy''s beloved (and excessively cute) daughter. We hope he’s proud of what we’ve done. -Lance Richardson 9/10/07, El Cajon, CA
