Remembering Jay Bennett
Jay Bennett obviously made an impact on many people, and with his passing has come an outpouring of remembrances and appreciations of his life and music. Chicago Public Radio's 848 takes their own look back with contributor Robert Loerzel remembering Bennett with interview excerpts from 2001. He also shares some personal memories on his blog Underground Bee.
Loerzel was one of the many gathered in Champaign over Memorial Day Weekend for a reunion concert featuring local bands from the same era as Bennett's Titanic Love Affair. "I was hoping to see Jay, but instead heard the sad news: He had died early Sunday morning at his home."
