<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IAVIkA4UT5E/WoEwPkdaUMI/AAAAAAAAYXU/58sLZVb6U4E7SL33rcIHDLugBmp2g0tgQCLcBGAs/s1600/jack%2Bkeyboards%2Bvocals.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="251" data-original-width="345" height="231" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-IAVIkA4UT5E/WoEwPkdaUMI/AAAAAAAAYXU/58sLZVb6U4E7SL33rcIHDLugBmp2g0tgQCLcBGAs/s320/jack%2Bkeyboards%2Bvocals.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Jack Hayward joined BFB in 1979 and was a dear friend until he finally succumbed to lymphoma in 1998. Jack met the band at a turning point in his life. It was a time when he was seeking a new direction from his former occupations as an LA County firefighter, and later as a black belt martial arts instructor, teaching in his own karate studio in Los Angeles.<br />
<br />
Jack wanted to live his dream of being a musician in a “tight” group with other players who truly shared the same vision of working hard at being the best they could be. He initially came into the band as a synthesizer keyboard programmer and sound effects specialist, but his positive energy and contagious enthusiasm led Jack to also feature his talent as a lead vocalist and front man.<br />
<br />
At that time, Cory played keyboards and Jack also played keys, programming his Minimoog (the world’s first portable synthesizer), and the massive Oberheim OBXA with its classic, lush 8-voice analog polyphony, as heard on Van Halen’s “Jump”. Those were the Rock N Roll “party down” good times days of playing seven days a week, rocking ‘till it was “last call” with the band’s last set ending at 1:45 and a capacity crowd still wanting more music.<br />
<br />
Big Brother Ernie Joseph reflects, “We were super tight with the dual keyboards sound, and Jack always got the crowd going fronting the group. Jack was a real team player, extremely humble, and hardworking. He was hungry for getting that tight sound, and with his sense of humor, he was also fun to rehearse with… and always so enthusiastic on stage.”<br />
<br />
It was a sad day when Jack called his BFB band bros, asking them to come for that last and final visit at the hospital. He knew that he had one more day, but even then, he was so positive and in good spirits.<br />
<br />
Jack Hayward lived a full life, and in the end he realized his dream of sharing the joy of music and bringing love to us all.

After a four year battle with cancer, Cory passed on Wednesday November 8, 2017 in Santa Barbara at the same hospital where he was born.<br />
<br />
In his youth growing up in Santa Barbara, Cory excelled in sports as a football quarterback /defensive back, team leader. He also led his baseball team to a Little League World Series as a pitcher.<br />
<br />
As a well-established and beloved musician, condolences came from our local music community, and from musicians who knew Cory from his travels across the country, including the East Coast and Atlanta where he performed and lived for five years.<br />
<br />
After touring extensively with brothers Ernie and Brian, Cory returned to Santa Barbara where he and brother Ernie reached out to serve the local music community as music producers and recording engineers. Their SRS Recording Studio helped many local musicians realize their dream of recording their music. As a record producer, Cory has the distinction of being the first to record local talent Katy Perry. Other clients included Jewel as she was doing her first demo recording at SRS Studios as an unknown artist.<br />
<br />
Cory, along with brothers Ernie and Brian, was a founding member of Santa Barbara musical pioneers, Ernie and The Emperors. With their song “Meet Me At The Corner,” the band was the first in Santa Barbara to record on a major label, Warner Bros./Reprise Records.<br />
<br />
Numerous recording projects followed as a member of Giant Crab, Big Brother Ernie Joseph, and Brian Faith Band.<br />
<br />
A CD release in 2012 was his most recent work as part of the Lillimar Pictures documentary soundtrack, “Makin’ It – The Story of the Brian Faith Band,” produced by award winning filmmakers John Ferry and Grace DeSoto Ferry.<br />
<br />
Cory dedicated his life to sharing his music. He will also be remembered for directly helping other musicians with his musical talent, record producing skills, encouragement and inspiration.<br />
<br />
Another favorite pastime of Cory’s was dabbling in electronic instrument repair and restoring musical instruments.<br />
<br />
Cory also enjoyed the company of his pet cat “Sunshine” who he often photographed, bringing Cory much peace and solace.<br />
<br />
One of Cory’s proud accomplishments was in serving his country as a U. S. Marine.<br />
<br />
Cory’s last, and only musical performance since his battle with cancer, was for SBHS class of ’66 50th Reunion, where he was among friends who knew and loved him.<br />
<br />
The family wishes to thank Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital, City of Hope (Dr.Jasmine Zain), the Ridley-Tree Cancer Center (Dr.Neetu Sekhon), and Cathy Swain for their quality care and love.<br />
<br />
A memorial service (TBA) is planned for early January 2018.Kaye Wallerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06491607694389685973noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385063574754341831.post-64041676842236881762017-11-20T18:55:00.000-08:002017-11-20T18:55:12.775-08:00This One's For You, Cory!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
