Norton Buffalo & the Knockouts- Part 2

This is a PBS music documentary of Norton Buffalo & the Knockouts that perform at the Cotati Cabaret in 1986. This is the first music performance program produced by David Ludwig for KRCB-TV PBS which started the "Music Tonight" PBS program that broadcast about 20 shows into the 1990s. I got to know Norton very well while doing the interviews. Great guy and really miss him.

I first saw him at Lou’s at S F, then at SF Music Halll. He told my sister that he was from Richmond, Ca. I told Norton I would
Never folllow a lower classmen. Then he talked to me about his relationship with the Anshuiits family.? I was a classmate with Rick since middle school. His older brother was friends with my brother, Kelly took me to my Jr. Prom. We never dated or had any relationship. Many years later I saw Norton at Vinnies at Concord.He remembered that I saw him Lou’s and the Great America Music Hall. He also told me that Kelly had passed from a heart attack. I was overwhelmed since my brother had passed 6 months prior.Kelly and my brother were friends from high school football. That was in June then the comments went out that Norton had stage 4 lung cancer: I was devastated. I have never gotten over his passing. I miss his music.

Norton taught me the basic beginning of the harmonica back when I was doing a six year bum rap at Folsum state Prison some time in the late eighties.
Back then I had never heard of him or how great he was at playing the harmonica.
His greatness can’t be ignored. His loss is so devastatingly unfortunate.
