Elaine, I just heard about Chief passing last Feb. Wish I had known for I would have been there to honor a dear friend. Odell often sent me tapes to listen and critique. He was a great musician and I listen to his music going down the road. We will always remember his legacy. Hope you are doing well. Howard Fikes
