Hi! I am engaged to Tom Baird's son, Ain- we are getting married in May this year! Ain has some fond memories of his dad when he was young- Tom passed away when Ain was 5- but there are still things missing.... I am wondering if anyone in the Rare Earth world would be interested in sharing any images/ memories/ etc that they have of Tom that I could gift to Ain for our wedding day? Just a thought...
Congradulations on your marriage. I was very much involved with Tom in the 70's with Rare Earth. Tom was my favorite producer and I loved him very much. You can be proud of him as he was a very caring person who always gave his best. He truly loved music and was an inspriation to me and many others. I visited him in VanCouver and he loved his family all the way. I have missed him for so long now. I think of him everytime I'm recording because he was such a big part of my life. He is truly missed. Know that he is smiling on his family. He was the best music person I've ever known..... Peter Rivera Rare Earth.....
