Really sorry to hear this. If you've never heard of Bill Hines, do yourself a favor and research him. The man was amazing. Quite possibly the Best Lead man that ever existed!

I have to say I am a little disappointed at the lack of attention this has gotten. The man was a pioneer and Prince seems to have gotten more respect. Bill Hines was 94 when he passed and more than likely still slinging lead the day before he passed
