I am so sorry to hear the passing of Carlton. It has been ages since I have seen him or his family, but I do remember a very kind, loving and honorable man.
My daddy, L.J. ( Muscles) Bradshaw used to make music with him and I would tag along because that was my daddy and I knew it would be fun. The last time I was there Carlton had boiled shrimp and oysters. He and daddy tried their best to get me to taste one. I did only because they wanted me too. Haven't eaten one since. He was a true friend to Daddy and was more like family. And he was truly a great man.
