I played bass guitar in a band with Neal for three years, and he was a fantastic drummer and person. Highly intelligent, the 60's were hard on him due the Vietnam and race riots, etc. He was very sensitive, articulate, and was recruited by the Yardbirds when they played a concert in Wichita. I think he turned them down since he was playing with the Outcasts at the time and was loyal to that arrangement. He was first class, and a great musician. We spent many hours together rehearsing and learning songs and new arrangements. When he passed away, I felt like I had lost a brother...in fact I still do. He always laughed easy, and had a smile and kind heart for everyone. Neal, I miss you brother! Doug
Neal was a great guy. Charlie, Steve and I got to hang out with him many times. He was the first "hippie" I ever knew, but for him there was a philosophy of life and love that went deep inside. He was a gifted musician and a great, free spirit.

Neal was a great Drummer for the Outcasts-
He was very intelligent and could have gone to Harvard!
