His work with @aerosmith @cheaptrick and John Lennon was some of the greatest recordings in music history Jack and I became friends in the 1990s when he stopped me on the street on Broadway outside of MTV. I had already been his fan since I was a 12-year-old boy. He helped me through some difficult times which we both got to the other side of.. spent quite a bit of time together in the 90s I saw him shortly before my stroke It was always so great to see him-we actually went to see Joe Perry do a solo show at the Roxy together a few years back. We will miss this amazing man,” he wrote. “Thank you for the music Jack.”
