Stuart Swanlund, guitarist for the modern incarnation of The Marshall Tucker Band, who joined the band in 1989, has passed away. He was 54 years old and really had a significant part in some of the band's later albums from the 2000s including "Beyond The Horizon" in 2004 and "The Next Adventure" in 2007. Will take an in depth look at those albums in due course. Swanlund did play in the band with Doug Gray and for a few years (possibly) with original MTB guitarist, the legendary, late Toy Caldwell. Here is the full story on his passing via Spinner magazine.

Rest In Peace, Stuart Swanlund. May the legacy of the Marshall Tucker Band continue. Hopefully another great guitarist will be found to play with them as they continue to tour.
