A Tribute to Lennie Baker



A Tribute to Lennie Baker

It is with a very heavy heart that I dedicate this week’s Classic Nick rocks to our beloved Lennie Baker of Sha Na Na who peacefully passed away on Wednesday, February 24th at South Shore Hospital at the age of 69.

Lennie was the best saxophone player to ever grace a stage but he was funny as well. As you watch these videos you will see his wonderful, and priceless, facial expressions that crack me up every time!

As I’ve said before I have never seen my Sha boys in concert, or have met any of them, they were a part of my childhood and now that I’ve rediscovered them as an adult I love them even more than I did when I was a little girl.

Goodbye our sweet Lennie, we love you and we miss you very much.
