I first heard the news from Bob Dylan’s Fan Club Facebook page who said: It was announced this morning that Dave Mason died on April 19th at 79 years old. Bob performed the song We Just Disagree, written by Jim Krueger and made famous by Mason, at concerts in 1980 and 1981. He played it the first time I saw him live in ‘81. Here’s one rendition (see below)

RIP Dave Mason.
It is with deep and profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of Dave Mason. On Sunday, April 19, after cooking an amazing dinner with his beloved wife Winifred, he sat down to take a nap with sweet Star (the maltese) at his feet. He passed away peacefully, in his favorite chair, surrounded by the beautiful Carson Valley that he loved so much. A storybook ending. On his own terms. Which is how he lived his life right up until the end.
He leaves a lasting imprint on the soundtrack of our lives and the hearts he has lifted. His legacy will be cherished forever.
