If I'm not mistaken Rex died a couple of years ago. I'm pretty sure that I'm correct but 'll do some checking.

I grew up in Canada and never knew of Rex, I really like his style, wish we had met out on the road somewhere?

Rex has died. He was a friend of mine. The last time I saw him He was playing at a celebration of life for another musician. I played there too. When Rex showed up I carried his steel guitar into the stage, as he couldn't do it anymore.He was a very nice guy.
