    Cause of death is... "accidental asphyxiation".

    Gilbert also has a tune on the upcoming Gentle Giant Tribute CD which
    is mainly cover tunes done by fans from the mailing list (myself
    included).  His tune was an original, tho, a vocal fugue in the style
    of Gentle Giant called "Suit Canon - Fugue of the A&R Staff". Very
    funny and well executed. It is about this "Johnny Virgil" character
    mentioned in the previous note.

    I spoke to Dan Schwartz yesterday, after seeing this note about Kevin's
    death.  He seemed pretty upset about it, obviously, but I guess they
    hadn't been in close contact for awhile.

    Btw, the Tuesday Night Music Club album project had already fallen
    apart, even before this; too bad.
