[Harp-L] John 'Juke' Logan

[Jim Fitting <jfitting@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am deeply saddened to report that John Juke Logan passed away this weekend after a long illness. He was a good friend, a mentor and one of the sweetest guys I've ever met.       He was best known for playing harmonica on the theme music for the tv shows "Rosanne" and "Home Improvement", and he was also a very good keyboard player, singer, writer. and graphic artist. He appeared as a sideman on a ton of great records, and film soundtracks as well. But it was his enthusiasm for the music, the musicians and the musical culture of his hometown and favorite players, "the chill" as he would say; that is the greatest thing we have lost.   He may not have been a household name,  but everybody heard his harmonica playing at one time or other. He will be missed.  Here's to you, Juke.
