Mr. George McCorkle......RIP.......here is a clip from the CMT website..........'Marshall Tucker Band guitarist George McCorkle died Friday morning (June 29) in Nashville after being diagnosed with cancer earlier this month. He was 60. He co-founded the Marshall Tucker Band in 1971 in Spartanburg, S.C., with vocalist Doug Gray, guitarist Toy Caldwell (who died in 1993), bassist Tommy Caldwell (who died in 1980), drummer Paul Riddle and flute and saxophone player Jerry Eubanks. McCorkle, who served as rhythm guitarist through 1983, wrote one of the band's Southern rock anthems, "Fire on the Mountain."'.....................
It is almost funny that they say 'rhythm guitarist'..............watch Tuckers DVD 'Live from the Garden State'..............especially on Searchin' for a Rainbow.......he sure has the right stuff!
