We are saddened to learn of the passing of NYC area guitarist Danny Drexler this morning after a battle with cancer.

Although his career was in advertising, I knew him as guitarist & leader of The Funky Fritters.  He was a long-time reader of MurphGuide.com and we got the chance to interview him back in 2010.  [see interview here]

Our condolences go out to his family.

Below is a video of The Funky Fritters performing “The Weight” at The Bitter End.  Danny is the guitarist on the right (first seen at 0:52).
