Another unfortunate, premature death, despite his hard living. Health and taking care of one's self is critical nowadays, since we are living longer and as such, develop more complicated health issues at those later ages. I miss his influence and playing. Plus, he played with Ornette Coleman, just to learn about jazz (a la Neal Peart). It's not only rock'n'roll anymore!
Finally, I do have my own Touch of Grey, even if many think that was too commercial. Personally I thought it was a great video and tribute to Deadheads and dogs that like bones.
