Don't Ask Me Why (V. Cavin / D. Winslow)
I woke up this morning singing, "Don't Ask Me Why," a song Dave Winslow and I wrote 40 some years ago while attending EWU. I had no idea I would be lucky enough to find it on this site.. .and am thrilled because I have no copies left. What a wonderful treat. Thanks!!!Vicky Cavin, January 2010
Tony Winslow passed away May 4, 2004 after a courageous battle with Multiple Sclerosis.Tony was a founding member of The Capers, and the Northwest Rock and Roll Band, who toured the state for the Governors Council of the Arts in the early 1970's. He also worked with groups such as The Kingsmen and Junior Cadillac before joining Dennis Roberts whom he worked with for many years.
Tony joined our band, Kracker for a short while before his illness forced him to retire. He was a talented guy who had a great sense of humor and was always fun to be around. He will be greatly missed.
