[Harp-L] RIP Pete Blasberg

[robert mcgraw]

Pete Blasberg was definitely a great player!  I feel fortunate to have gotten to hear him play at SPAH once. Rest in peace, Pete Blasberg, rest in peace.

Excellent under rated player. He could have been more famous if not for the fact that he had a seperate professional life. A loss for sure. I just lost an uncle in Palios Verdes. Also at 102. Not exactly young. So....
