The first year we begin without Travis Edmonson amongst us.
At least we have his wonderful music to bring his memory alive on a daily basis - which many of us do.
2010 marks the 50th anniversary of the fabulous performance Bud & Travis gave at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium on March 24, 1960, and we have B&T in Concert and “Volume 2” to bring that evening alive on CD.
It had been our dream to stage a grand banquet and recreation of the show on the golden anniversary, with Travis on hand to join in, but we hope that everyone will commemorate the day in some special way of their own. Do let us know if you have any plans.
We are pleased to say that, since first appearing online in the summer of 2003, this website has added new content each and every month ever since, and we hope that admirers and friends will continue to share their memories and comments to keep it a living salute to one of the greatest entertainers America has ever known.
Special Event
Some of those dearest to Travis Edmonson assembled on February 20 when Rosemarie and grandchildren Jessie and Jacob attended a performance by the incomparable Ted Ramirez at the Glendale, Arizona home of Bonnie Brock.
Not just a protégé, Ted was, without question, one of the singers Travis admired most, and with his Latin repertoire and fabulous storytelling, inevitably put on a show which will live endlessly in the memory of all present.
Bonnie, who did so much to sustain Travis in his last years, has staged a number of fabulous house concerts, and outdid herself for the Ted Ramirez event, leaving all present hoping she'll soon again be staging another evening of delightful music, good fellowship and tasty food.
It seems incredible, but this year we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the great Bud & Travis concert at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium on March 24, 1960.
