Bruce Gaitsch Quotes
I only had the pleasure of working with Warren in person once. He was total pro and a dream vocalist. He sang a song of mine on Jay Graydon's last solo record, entitled “You’re Not Alone”, and it is one of my all time favorite vocal performances. My wife, Janey Clewer, also recorded with Warren three or four times out at David Foster’s studio. She also thinks that Warren was a gentleman and a true musical genius. We will never forget him. The sweetest man you could hope to meet. Truly a genius, Warren will be remembered fondly.
