Didn't Marianne say in her autobiography about Spanish Tony that he might have been a good human being "had he lived"?
I think she said that about the French count who supplied Pam Courson with the smack that may or may not have killed Jim Morrison. They were seeing each other and took off for Morocco after Jim croaked. The count himself OD'd soon thereafter.
I'm pretty sure Marianne just thought Tony was a scumbag.

What ?! Can't search the thread now but didn't his son/nephew post here saying he had indeed passed on ?
You don't really believe everything you read here, do you? People lie on this board all the time. One guy says he Chuck Berry's son, another says he was the Stones 1969 tour manager, etc. Hell, we have a poster here named Edith who isn't even a woman!
If I told you I was Spanish Tony's daughter, would you believe that?
Spanish Tony is still around. Don't think he's going to any of the upcoming RS shows, though.

And we have one guy on here who names himself after a candy bar.
Why would "Spanish" Tony Sanchez have an obituary that one could access online? He wasn't even famous. He was just a musician's gofer who wrote a book about being a rock band's drug mule. To date, he is featured in only 56 seconds of YouTube footage, and it's all still photos. Tony Sanchez is so obscure that when you Google his name, all you get are yoga and baseball links. Tony Sanchez doesn't even have a wikipedia page, and if it weren't for his book, you would never have heard of the man at all. Alive or dead--frankly, who cares? It's not like he's ever going to write a sequel to Up and Down with the Rolling Stones....
For what it's worth, apparently word of his death appears in the liner notes to a 2003 edition of his book published by Blake Publishing Ltd.:
According to the liner notes of "I was Keith Richards' drug dealer" by Tony Sanchez (published by Blake Publishing Ltd. 2003), Tony Sanchez died peacefully on 14th June 2000.

You don't have to be famous, Corky, to have an obit that one can access online. My grandmother, who was a schoolteacher and far from famous, died in 2003. Yet if you type her name in the Google search box and the word "obituary", you'll get her obit. BTW, she too does not have a wikipedia page.
"Frankly, who cares?" I do. Apparently several others do as well. If you care to check, this thread has six pages of posts. And for someone who doesn't "care", your post is rather long -- & you added a video to boot!
I appreciate you posting that blurb from Blake Publishing. It seems my friends were wrong and I was wrong as well. I wonder who that record store guy is?

This is my video. It was one of the first things I ever got when I bought my VHS player. Funny it was like $1200 at the time. Blank video tapes were $20. That was a fortune at the time. Especially when I made only $3 an hour. Not much beer money that week. I remember when his book came out. I couldn't even put it down. I carried it around at high school like it was a bible.
The interview is from
Entertainment Tonight November 2nd 1979

Interesting to see the guy in person, but frankly it kind of makes me feel like I need a shower now. Maybe I'm being too harsh, but he strikes me as the definition of a sleazeball...and the interviewer smiling away when she's asking him about killing people. Ugh...

He definitely existed...he wrote book, there are pictures and at least 1 video
Seriously, I agree, if he was still alive we'd have heard from him as he picked some more meat from the carcass

How dare you call him a sleazeball! He respected drug dealer and high flying member of the London criminal underworld a sleazeball?
Tssss.
