RIP to one of the best keyboardists of the generation.

Truly one of the harder instruments to play, for real. Most musicians will tell you, a keyboardist is hard to find (in those days), and a great one,well you get my drift, no need to sling around a cliche'.

I read some unflattering things about Ray and Krieger in John Densmores book, and it kinda bugs me a little. Great talent lost, but a money grubbing scumbag in the end.

I am torn, as musically, he was awesome, as a human being, especially last few years, not so much. Someone likes suing his old bandmembers, and the parents of Morrison, because they turned down selling a song to some car company for a commercial.
