Karla Bonoff was also a friend of Kenny Edwards who was one of Linda Ronstadt’s producers and bass player...Unfortunately Edwards passed away a few years ago.

Maybe 15 years ago he was a member of a little band that played a few times in our SoCal church...didn’t really appreciate who he was other than that he was an excellent musician. When he died and the articles came out on who he was...I was flabbergasted. If I want to see him now, I just pull up an old Linda Ronstadt video and there he is, up on stage, often along side her. What a guy. What a loss.

Edwards handled the sale of his and Bonoff’s CDs and I got in touch with him over the telephone. We talked several times and he was always courteous and friendly. He, Nina Gerber, and Karla Bonoff played a small venue in Huntsville, Alabama, and there were maybe fifty people there. I got to spend an hour with them discussing music and listening to him tell stories of his playing. It was quite memorable. I have a few autographs and a great memory of the visit.
