| A
LEGEND IS LOST |
 Mr.
Bennie Smith, the 'Master of the Stratocaster' here in St. Louis,
lost his battle to lung cancer and the complications of this horrible
disease on Sept. 10, 2006. He was surrounded by his friends and family.
Bennie touched the lives of countless music fans and musicians, and
his music and spirit will live forever through those who knew him!
Bennie performed as recently as the 2006 Big Muddy, with his love
of music evident by the smile he shared with all the fans on hand.
Over the years, Bennie became a good friend to STLBlues, shared his
life story with us, and gave us so many moments of sheer musical
bliss. We'll miss him dearly, may his music be eternal.
Big Dave -
Publisher at STLBlues
