I played bass with Rick the last 4 years of his life and shared his studio the last two years while he was doing many of these pieces. I would be glad to participate in any way that I can. I still perform several of his songs. He was a great friend and the most creative human I have ever met. Thank you for doing this! Gilbert “Gib” Bernhardt
To Howard Mekemson: please contact me via the "Contact & Details" page. I would love to speak with you but have no way of doing so through your comment. I'm glad you reached out! Zuzka Sabata, Artistic Director - The Bartow Project
Rick Bartow was my brother, I would be happy to help fill in the blanks from his early life.
