My Take
Bruce Palmer is the kind of musician I find myself rooting for: the bassist who anchors a legendary band without ever stepping into the spotlight. As the low end of Buffalo Springfield, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group that launched Neil Young and Stephen Stills, he supplied the foundation that let those larger talents soar. Bass is invisible until it is gone, and then everything collapses. Hailing from Nova Scotia and passing in 2004, he leaves behind that elastic, restless pulse you can still feel underneath the shimmering folk-rock of the era. Quietly essential.
