Statement by Neil Young: Rick Rosas: 1949 - 2014

NY Times

Neil Young has posted a statement on his official new page NY Times on Rick Rosas, who sadly passed away last week:

RICK THE BASS PLAYER
November 9, 2014

It is with great admiration, appreciation and sadness that I note the passing of Rick Rosas. Rick played on many of my records, from Rockin in the Free World, Eldorado and This Note's for you, to Prairie Wind, Living with War and Who's Gonna Stand Up. There were great live performances with Rick which will be unveiled in upcoming Archives releases, chronicling the talent and soul of one of the greatest musicians to ever play with me. Heart of Gold and Trunk Show, two motion pictures featuring Rick and directed by Jonathan Demme, are among my favorite creations of all time. Trunk Show is still unreleased.

Rest in Peace Rick.
Lots of love,
Neil
