Lee had a fall earlier this week, after getting home from Lyle Lovett's tour. He needed some stitches on his face and will need some restorative dentistry, as well as new glasses. He spent Tuesday night in the hospital for post-concussion observation, but got home on Wednesday. He seems in good spirits. He mentioned injuring one of his hands, but didn't seem concerned about it affecting his playing.

Feel better, Mr. Slappy!

a truly truly unsung maestro of his instrument, and sadly, only one in a hundred people would even know who he is.

the section should be in the rock hall, but they never will be.

the list of albums those guys played on is most likely awe-inspiring.

Same goes for the Wrecking Crew, obviously (Hal Blaine had been inducted as a sideman). I'd also advocate for Murray, Johnstone, Olsson & Cooper as the Elton John Band.

What a sweet guy and what a trouper! I have had my teeth knocked in and it is no fun. The pain was incredible. I hope he heals well and quickly and is back to doing what he loves.
