Wayne Allwine was an "Arrow" in the 60's and then in 1977, he became the 3rd official voice of "Mickey Mouse". His marriage to Russi Taylor in 1991 gave me a fun fact to add to most of my interviews, she is the voice of "Minnie Mouse"! As all of you can imagine, I am devastated by this. A few weeks ago I transferred some tracks from the 60's to be included on the new album and he is on one of those. A fan/friend who has a 'zine in England asked about the tunes Wayne was on. I sent this: The most "famous" of the tracks on which he appeared were "Cycle-Delic" (he did the rhythm guitar, the saxaphone mouthpiece solo and the harmonica solo) and "Mind Transferral"...also on rhythm and reciting "Mary Had A Little Lamb" with my first wife (the tape was turned upside down for the recording so the nursery rhyme came out backwards). Also, he was on "Blues Trip" and "13th Harley" plus an unreleased version of "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" that I had EQ'd four weeks ago to be part of the next album. He was not on many tracks but we did plenty of appearances including a month long tour of the U.S. in '67. He was a great friend, a great talent and one of the nicest guys I ever knew. I can't quite convey the incredible sadness I feel for the loss. Davie Allan www.davieallan.com I lost a longtime friend this week.
