I thought it was FRY, but in a recent documentary post Randy Meisner's death it was pronounced FRAY. Thanks.

Tom is correct about the spelling. My best friend from Penn State has his last name spelled that way and so did one of my practice associates (also from PA) and they pronounce their last name fry, as in French fry.

Now Randy Bachman of The Guess Who and BTO is a different story. I went to a Guess Who concert about 20 years ago (original members) and Burton Cummings set the record straight when introducing the members of the band. The last name is pronounced Back-man, not Bock-man.
