We are going to be spinning some records on Thursday night, including some of Gary Hobish' favorite bands. Please join us and let's raise a glass to a wonderful guy who left us way too soon. from the desk of Pat Thomas:
Yesterday, unexpectedly the San Francisco music community lost an essential element - Gary Hobish: bass player, recording engineer, mixer, mastering wizard, member of countless bands and a supportive fan of every other band in town - of all genres: songwriters, jazz, prog, you name it. But his talent wasn't just felt in the Bay Area - he was THEE mastering guy for many NRBQ projects. He mastered many of the reissues that I worked on: Pearls Before Swine, Judee Sill, Cluster & Eno, Holy Modal Rounders, True West, and for 20 some years - was a key part of my Mushroom collective (once or twice as a bass player), but especially recording, mixing and mastering us - and a true fan of the band - always at every Make Out Room gig we did. I believe Gary had a heart attack doing something he loved a lot - dancing in Golden Gate Park on a Sunday afternoon. I believe he was in his late 60s - too young to be taken away from us. Gary's contributions to San Francisco musicians were selfless - while he did recording/mastering for a living - it was never about the money, there was no budget too small for him to work with AND he loved all genres of music. He himself was in The Jars - a new wave band in Berkeley from 1978 to 1982, He has spent several decades in True Margit (a wonderful piano based singer/songwriter ensemble) and a man after my own heart - he expertly played the role of Chris Squire in a Yes cover band. For me, this is the biggest loss to San Francisco music since the passing of Ralph Carney a few years ago - in other words, flags across San Francisco should be lowered to half-staff. Already within minutes of folks finding out his passing - my Facebook feed was filled with countless tributes from all kinds of folks - which is the true reflection of someone who made a positive impression on the rest of us - and NOT just for his devotion to our craft - BUT, because he was a sweetheart, gentle soul - I f*cked up by never attending his annual latke party and now there will be no more. Gary was a contributor, not a taker. Gary left an impression, not a depression. |
