What's really sad to me is that obviously a lot of people here don't even get that we've lost one of the great ones.

5 out of how many members even bothered to post in the thread, could be his reason.

well since no one on the forum talked about him while he was living why would they talk about him once he's dead. as soon as some old music figure dies everyone seems to be quick to jump on the 'yeah, i loved [insert name here]' bandwagon. not meaning to put down you guys who've posted since you obviously knew his music etc

well he wasn't exactly active in the last couple years, possibly due to the fact that he was in a coma... but let us remember him now for the great musician he was.

don't be bitter young man. this isn't the time.
