RIP Ben Keith - Steel Guitar Player for Neil Young


Ben Keith, long time steel guitar player for Neil Young, has passed. Ben was a crucial element to monumental works (and some of my favorite of all time) by Neil Young such as Harvest, On The Beach and Tonight's the Night (to name a few, the man was amazing).

Cause of death doesn't seem to be out there just yet.

Rest in peace sir, you will be remembered.

Often musicians like this don't receive the credit and recognition they deserve. His contributions to those albums make them the special works they are.
