    He was a friend of the Yippies. His books were great NYC novels. I got a chance to meet him when I saw him outside Balducci's in the Village while I was leading a tour group. A mensch, a real nice guy. R.I.P.

    He came in to a music store I worked at in the 90s I was running the acoustic room so he was in there and we jammed on several tunes and one he sang I forget what it was other than it was about Texas,…we shook hands and he left I never knew who he was until many years later. May he RIP

    Absolutely loved his detective books - Be in peace with Ratso, Rambam, UptownJudy/Downtown Judy and all his gang. RIP KINKSTER

    I guess he rode that ol' Silver Eagle to the last town on the Line. I'll miss him terribly.

    Funny, smart and too decent for Politics. He was justly proud of being a musician. All the criticism he ever got came from those who had no sense of humor.

    Should’ve played a little bit of his music. It would’ve been more fitting to honor him. You missed your chance.⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️

      You're right, it's a crime to have skipped Kinky's musical side. I lived in El Paso in the late 1970s and I liked him a lot. I liked that he later on got involved in politics but I knew that the bad guys would've circled the wagons to shut him out(and they did, sadly). I was delighted to read in a magazine(in the early 1990s) that he referred to Garth Brooks as "The Anti-Hank." His witticisms were always sharp and weird -- he will be missed.

    He was a realist for freedom, rights, and equality, yah, like me, he wanted weed to be as legal as alcahol, what's best in men anyways, truth is a good start, god rest his soul 🤔🐈🕊️✌️
