The greatest jazz composer of the 20th century died from cancer last friday morning... I saw him live less than a year ago and now he is gone....so sad...
If you do not know his music you should do yourself a favor and get hold of a copy of "Point of departure". IMO it is one of the greatest and most original records ever released!
Thankfully, Blue Note is reissuing his records at the moment so his legacy will survive...
