NEWS: LEGENDARY MUSIC PRODUCER PASSES AT THE AGE OF 73

The light of the world is a little dimmer this evening. Barry Fey, legendary producer, has passed on at the age of 73. He was a pioneer, placing and making and nurturing Colorado as a music scene. He produced hundreds of concerts over a span of 30 years, beginning in 1960, and was renowned for bringing musical acts to the U.S. for the first time. He saved the Red Rocks Amphiteater by making it the place to play for every group worldwide, and he also promoted more shows with The Rolling Stones and The Who than anybody else all before the days of the “national tours.”

Barry, you may no longer be here with us, but your light will forever shine, and may the fire you started never be extinguished.

About Johnny Price (591 Articles)
Johnny P’s picture should truly be in the dictionary next to “music lover” as he seriously personifies the very essence of the word. He lives, sleeps, eats & breathes music. When he’s not at shows conducting interviews, he’s writing out his experiences for all of you in his wonderful, down-home, “don’t need a damn thesaurus to read it” storytelling way. He is our Knight in Metal/Rock Armour, our tireless attendee of every show, and most importantly – a champion and friend to musicians at every level (he treats everyone like a rockstar!). If you ever get the chance to meet him, you’ll know by his big smile and humble southern boy charm that he is about as real and nice as they come.

WHAT SAY YOU?
