California was responsible for penning many of Spirit’s best known songs, including “I Got a Line on You,” “Nature’s Way,” and “1984.” His guitar style was his own and influenced many who followed. Spirit was scheduled to start a three month European tour beginning in January ‘97. Rest in peace, Randy, you will be missed.
