R.I.P Al Howe 😢

[MTS]

The homie brought it on vinyl and Live.
I was lucky enough to see Howe 2 a few times and took lessons with Greg for about a year.
He should've gone a lot further in his career......

Never even knew Greg had a brother. His stuff is right up my alley in terms of tastes. I love soul and RnB and Greg's guitar work on that cut is pure ttaste. Very nice. RIP Al. I will definitely add the bros to my prayers tonight. Thanks for sharing. Looks like I have a new artist to listen to, albeit maybe a little too late. Best-VB

Saw Howe II back in the day. They were really great. Greg is one of my favorites.

Man, Greg has had a few tough years; believe his wife passed from cancer recently as well. God bless.

I met Al around 1985. Greg was working in my folks' house as a contractor's helper and invited me to his band (Duke) practice, as I was too young to go to their big showcase gig for a bunch of record companies. Greg has had a rough year or two, but I got to see him twice in 2023, in Phoenix and Evansville, IN. I guess he has to stay busy to get past all the other bad stuff going on.

Whaaat.

Fuck.

I love Howe II. Been listening to high gear the past week non stop!!! What a crazy good album. Great singer, great guitar player.

I am sad to hear this.

RIP my friend.
