Man this is just too young, we're stripped again of yet another legendary
musician. The cat was fantastic, playing with a whole host of great
musicians. I'll miss him. He died a few weeks ago, but thought I'd mention
it, especially for all of you guitarists out there.

That's way to young for sure. Some of the last few pictures appear to show
him very overweight, the earlier ones he looks very fit. Did weight have
anything to do with his death? Another great loss for sure.

John, I'm not sure, I know he had oral cancer for which he was being
treated, but he also had some abuse issues for years. Right, he was real fit
in his younger days and gained weight later in his life.
