We had lost touch, but Tommy was an old friend of mine from the 1960s and '70s.

One night long ago, I heard that a guy named Tommy East would be playing at a little joint on Avenue A in Beaumont. When I walked in, I thought Benny Barnes was singing, but it was Tommy. He could do impressions of anybody. Great singer. After that, I wrote an article about him in the Beaumont Enterprise.

My deepest sympathies go out to the family.
