This morning at home my local public radio station was playing what seemed like an all Red House setlist. It continued (two Lucy songs!) into my drive to work. Then they explained that Bob Feldman, president of Red House Records, who gave Lucy her first break as a recording artist had died yesterday (Wednesday), suddenly and unexpectedly, at 56. He assembled an incredible array of talent under his Red House label. I know Lucy was not only "eternally grateful" to him for helping her get her start, but also liked him as a person. (How many other presidents of record companies would musicians refer to as a "person"). A fun, funny, fair guy who we would still see out at shows from time to time, checking out what's new. He will be sorely missed.
