There was a documentary made about him last year. He was a pretty amazing guy, and not just for his contribution to music... he came across as a compassionate, philosophical, positive and fun-loving person who would have commanded love and respect no matter what he chose to do with his life.

I've been checking a few music websites on the net this morning and they all have banners and memorial pages set up already.

Thanks for posting the topic Rules ^:|

Not really so surprising...

...in light of what he did for keyboards is at the very least as influential as what Fender did with the guitar.

Sorry to see him pass. ^:)
