Kenny Rankin, who was one my my best friends passed away on Sunday June 7, 2009. We in Indonesia, his Fans, Java Jazz Festival and I personally mourn the passing away of this Legend. Tears were in my eyes, when I spoke to Kenny last, around 3 (three) weeks before he Died. I got upset with me...."He Wasnt Going anywhere!!!" he said... I am lucky to have recorded Kenny in a private event, a Video that was never released. Here is "Black Bird:" Kenny,.... we in Indonesia will always remember you ...
