jaxson50 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Dan Hicks, the wildly creative San Francisco singer-songwriter who, with his group Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks, had hits in the 1970s such as “I Scare Myself” and “Canned Music,” died Saturday after a two-year battle with cancer, according to his website. He was 74. The news was made public via a message on social media from his wife, CT Hicks: http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2016/02/06/dan-hicks-san-francisco-folk-jazz-pioneer-dead-at-74/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zigzag Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 This really does make me sad. I've loved that band since early the '70s, and last saw them about 12 years ago. Great group, great sound, fun show. This hurts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nNjk4q_FGg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWZ8wjQE_bY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Too sad. The wife and I were just discussing the musicians we grew up with in the 50's - 70's are all getting up there. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
