Was sorry to hear the news. I met him once about 25 years ago at a hotel in Perth. He was having breakfast, by himself, and was very gracious and exceptionally nice when my business associate and I stopped by to say hello. I've always enjoyed his music...Gone too soon. RIP
A shock; one of the first greats of his generation to go. RIP
