Wow. I was going to see him the fall before Covid and couldn't get my act together in time to get tickets.

I have seen him many times. Sad day for sure. He seemed so healthy in his latest videos.
Rest in Peace, Chick. Thanks for all the incredible, ground breaking music.

That’s a huge bummer. Seen him many times. RTF was probably the most played stuff on my record player in college. Some great you tube performances out there.

I think I first came across him on Times Lie, a Stan Getz album, which was basically Return to Forever + Stan.

RIP. I wasn't a big fan but really did like the way he reworked a couple of Scriabin's preludes. Very tasteful.

I’ve seen him live and I seem to remember enjoying. In my younger years romantic warrior was an album I listened to. But honestly did not delve into his work too deeply.
A bit too electronic for me. I prefer the jazz standards of Keith Jarrett
