Love this.
But they missed “Whereas he was 50% of the locally iconic Chesterfield Auto Parts commercials, which are still the best local TV ads ever created…”

He was a great guy, and i miss having him in the world. An amazing Alt.country guy.. his work as the shiners is still a big part of my rotation.
He is as much as part of the Richmond sound as Gwar and Cracker.

He was also in a low budget movie called "The Thrillbillies" Have it on DVD, and went to the premier showing at the Canal Club.

I never met him but my wife was lucky enough to get to know him through his last days of cancer treatment. R.I.P. to a wonderful person.

That’s a good one, but I was thinking of the ones in this series (could only find it on their FB): https://m.facebook.com/ChesterfieldAutoParts/videos/spokesperson/1163065277176725/
