i got turned onto him via the rockers soundtrack record. saw him for free at rutgers university c.1981, outside on a beautiful day. there were about 20-30 people there and i was a few feet from the band,no one in-between me & Toots. i was tripping a little too hard for my sensitive self. Toots put on his usual animated show and kept looking directly at me, freaking me the fuck out!
rest in peace.
