Someone mentioned on Guy's forum that there will be some sort of tribute to Richard. The person who mentioned it posted a link to Richard's Facebook page. The posting is the same as Henk maintains on Richard's fansite, also. Here is the Facebook link: A Salute To Richard It is apparently going to be a live interview/show in a theater, I think in Nashville, later in July. The program will be streamed by the countrymusichalloffame.org. It sounds like it could be quite interesting. Too bad it is so far away! :P |

Sounds like a well deserved tribute to Richard, he has played on many many artists songs, and always adds something. I wonder if Mark has been invited? or maybe he will send a video message. |

You can watch the tribute to Richard Bennett on a Richard Bennett fan site, run by Henk by clicking the link below: Richard Bennett Fan site He talks about his life and musical career, which is long and varied, there are a number of famous songs which I didn't know he had played on. He starts talking about Mark from 1;06 into the video. Richard seems like a very cool guy, maybe a bit reserved and modest like Mark, which could be why they get on so well. He also talks about the very first session he did with Mark and which song that was, which is news to me :) |

It was a great video to watch. Also, Richard had a few words after the program to say on his website about it, as well as some about his summer, too. |
