If anyone has any stories of him, good or bad, stories, pictures of the him & or with people at the steak house, we'd be honored to have them. We'd like to have a section on the wall to honor him. The very inside of the building has many rooms & if anyone knows why that is, we'd love to hear about it. Thank you.

I considered him a friend, along with Aubrey Tucker. Buddy was a good friend, and a very nice gentleman. I met his lovely wife at an "after party" get together. I will always remember Buddy for many reasons, and his style, class, dedication to do many, and his music.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07658628956582123995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6601597406960791640.post-85282796615582216692016-06-26T17:07:36.719-07:002016-06-26T17:07:36.719-07:00Very nice that you're preserving these sorts o...Very nice that you're preserving these sorts of things. Buddy Kirk was a very nice gentleman, and, probably about 72-years old when I worked with him (at a hotel called the Flagship, in Galveston, Texas). I was bout 32, and he was doing music from the 30's and 40's, mostly. He really needed an organist, who could play bass pedals, and I really needed a job...... The guy was really upset that I didn't stick with his band, but - while I could handle the repertoire - it wan't what I wanted to play. Again, good for you for keeping some of his work alive. Finding this was fun.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10545258618165873597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6601597406960791640.post-12557391123048206132016-06-26T14:44:51.637-07:002016-06-26T14:44:51.637-07:00Hello Guy.
