Gary Wright dies

[OLDE CUTLER]

Gary Wright, the " Dream Weaver" has died at age 80 from dementia and Parkinsons disease. I can recall seeing him on the Midnight Special sweating profusely playing his portable keyboard hanging from a neck strap. Anyone remember the show, the Midnight Special? It featured pre recorded video clips by major music artists years before MTV.

OC, You are bringing back old memories!

Dream Weaver came out in 1975, when I was a freshman in HS. It was played on the radio all the time. Used to watch Midnight Special all the time - at least those few times I was home on Saturday night back then! Good memories. May he RIP.

I only knew him by that one song, because it is my wife's absolute favorite ....
she will be bummed

bummer, I just started rebuilding a library of songs that I like from that era, and that album was top of the list

That's bad news. Sat on the front row at his concert back in the 70s. Think he was a two-hit wonder. Don't forget "My Love is Alive"!
