Besides being a magical and wonderful human being, @WillnerHal was the first person to put SY on national tv on his Night Music show back in 1989. He will be missed.https://t.co/VFayCrJgRh

He was a friend and he was a teacher.

The amazingly talented, innovative, eclectic & visionary music producer Hal Willner passed today. A true artist, a lover of music, a devoted father, a good friend & an angel in my life when I really needed one. Hal helped me find the light in the darkness. Devastated by this news

Hal was a part of so much of the music and pop culture comedy we have all enjoyed for years. He was kind and extremely cool. So sorry to hear this. Sending love to his family. https://t.co/UdecryPuEx

Adam, I’m so terribly sorry for your loss. For OUR loss! Hal Willner was one of a small handful of the great archivers, & contextualizers of REAL Americana. Out Where The Buses Don’t Run & the train tracks end. Where sharecroppers & shtetl immigrants, & chain gang escapees JAM. https://t.co/dSxTvqG2G1
