Rest in peace, Chuck…
@SVG__Collection I swear he looks like the Jesus in the famous paintings, even in the early English drawings, bibles, tiles, and tapestries too. What if he was Jesus just coming down to be a musician and hang out? No offense to anyone living or a deity.
@SVG__Collection When I was a kid 😢I played his cassette over and over and over
Hard core jazzers tended to put him down. It was never a competition for legitimacy to me. He made instrumental music accessible to millions. He also ushered in the jazz fusion era in pop music. Bands as diverse as Earth, WInd & Fire, Steely Dan and others stepped through that door he opened.
@SVG__Collection So grateful for the jazz refresh & revival in the late 1970's, early 80's. Grandparents had the Big Band era. We had Chuck and yes, it felt so good!
@SVG__Collection Great musicians in that band. The guitarist was phenomenal.
@SVG__Collection One of the few cool moments in a Marvel movie. And it featured Chuck at the heart of it: "Useless?! The man charted a top-10 hit with a flugelhorn." youtu.be/GOOkWuzPIv8?si…
@SVG__Collection ..may he Chase The Clouds Away wherever he may be.. RIP.. 😢
@SVG__Collection Sad to hear. That was such an unexpected hit. Turned lots of people on to jazz. RIP
@SVG__Collection Oh no...! 😧 I wore his album "Feels So Good" OUT...! I loved playing guitar along with it. RIP Sir, and thanks for all the great musical memories...
@SVG__Collection Man that sounds so smooth. Chuck was Epic back then 😞🥀
@SVG__Collection Another one? Celebs are dropping like flies.
@SVG__Collection @pursertrust Man, these folks are checking out all at once… 😔
@SVG__Collection RIP legend 🙏🏽
@SVG__Collection went to Oakland A's games...the stadium broadcaster Roy Steele would run through the Sponsor ads and Chuck's tune was just humming along...a horrible owner removed this from my memory, RIP Chuck! You were my childhood. Thanks for the superb tune!
@SVG__Collection Love this. And Grant Geissman's solo. RIP Mr Mangione.
@SVG__Collection Grant Geissman was a beast on jazz guitar. RIP Chuck.
@SVG__Collection First I heard of it. It's really crazy the last few weeks with all these public figures passing. RIP Chuck.
@SVG__Collection Great 👍 musician grew up with his songs❤️😊🎶
@SVG__Collection Man, the bass lines are killer. Overall, great band!
@SVG__Collection Everyday in my mothers house
@SVG__Collection RIP Legend!!! The Great Chuck Mangione
@SVG__Collection I think it was Al Hirt who said that Chuck Mangioni played an out of tune French horn.
