That sucks.  Flaco was a giant in his musical genre.  

I read that Dave Edmunds had some sort of medical event and isn't doing well, either.  We're going to be seeing a lot of these great musicians and artists passing away in the near future, unfortunately.

Going to? Where have you been, lately?

Not to be morbid, but I was trying to convey that I think the rate of attrition for really significant rock/pop musicians will increase even compared to the past, unfortunately.  As the "appreciation thread for old guys" thread notes, a lot of 'em are at that age now.

Like many transplants, I came to know his music through the Tornados and Los Super Seven.  He always seemed like a bright light full of talent.  RIP, Flaco.

I was familiar with the name, but Dwight was my knowing introduction to El Flaco.

I like the smile Pete Anderson gives to Flaco, then he moves over and back to give Flaco the spotlight.

Why couldn't it have been Joe Flacco?

My first thought was someone meant to post this in the football board. My second thought was that the OP would post the Rock Me, Amadeus video.

Truly one of a kind.  There is no replacement. Grew up in South Texas and he was on seemingly every song on every juke box in every beer joint. Sucks to know his gone. Apretarlo Flaco. This cumbia’s para ti.
