  • I was a young guy financing my education and supplementing my income playing trombone in the Bay Area. Fred gave me gigs and a tour with Elvis. I loved playing next to him and he was awesome and the very best. And I have been forever grateful for the kindness he gave me when I was young.

  • I remember Fred Mergy drove a Renault Dauphine in 1960 when he played with my parents combo. It may have been his 1st pro gig. He parked the Renault in our driveway and they all drove to Tahoe for gigs at Harrahs. When they came back I remember my stepdad telling me that every horn player in Tahoe made it a point to come by and hear “the new monster trombone player working with Johnnie Bozic.” I’d fondly read mentions of him in Herb Caen’s Chronicle column in the ’60s. A great musician and a hell of a nice guy.
