He brought country and electric blues to a new generation, introduced the pre Band members to Dylan and recorded an album of Tom Wait covers. The AUK obit is coming soon.

He'll be a sad loss. I've never been much of a blues fan, but I've always found John Hammond to be very listenable, evidenced by the fact that I have four of his albums in my collection - though that works out to be 10% of his output over a 60 year career! I'll miss him.
