Sad news, sorry to hear of his passing.

I'm just getting ready to head out with my son to go see Branford Marsalis, I would expect he'll make mention of it.

Rest in peace, Charles.

My wife and I saw Neville Brothers in Long Beach. Great show.

Wow. Terrible news. RIP :(

A great complimentary player.  The last time I saw him perform was at last year's Jazzfest, as a part of Dr. John's new band.  He seemed healthy then, spry compared to the very frail Art.  Always loved his sweet sound and his sense of style.

 

RIP Brother Charles

I had the honor to play with Charles several times with Gent Treadly.   He was a very nice man.

I'm very saddened by this news. I Loved Charles, got to meet him at a Dead Show in the 90's. Sweet guy, amazing musician. So long, Charles...heart

Charles was a kind and gentle soul. A very intelligent man, too. So enjoyable to hang with. Always had a smile (and a pretty lady around).
