just got word that sean costello passed away (purportedly of a drug od) on 15 april 2008, a day shy of his 29th birthday.
to me, he was one of the best young blues guitarists/singers around. soulful voice and tremendous guitar tone. the guy epitomized "tone is in the face". he got me reacquainted with and craving the tonefulness of P-90's.
for anyone unfamiliar with him, check out his youtube videos and his website (
http://www.seancostello.com/).
died too soon...rest in peace.
