Dewey Martin dies at 68; drummer for Buffalo Springfield (http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/california/la-me-dewey-martin6-2009feb06,0,6541056.story)
Dewey Martin, drummer for the short-lived but long-resonating rock band Buffalo Springfield whose career after the group split never ignited like those of his former band mates Neil Young and Stephen Stills, has died. He was 68.
He was found dead Sunday by a roommate in his Van Nuys apartment, longtime friend Lisa Lenes said Thursday. The cause of death has not been determined. "We believe it was natural causes," Lenes said, adding that he had suffered health problems in recent years and performed publicly only sporadically.
Always loved the sound of Buffalo Springfield - the drumming was always special - at least to me.
