He was a long-term Scientologist, right?

I wish the article would have NAMED the type of cancer he had...

Maybe others could be made aware that there is more than lung, cancer...there are many types of blood cancer..many rare and no cure, no treatment...

Sad for all that suffer..Prayers for all, who suffer from all forms of that hated disease ..

Yes. I asked him about that after a concert in Portland a very long time ago. He said Scientology was a useful tool.

One of my genius-heroes since his days with Miles.

Thanks for the great music, Chick. You were an inspiration.

When I was young and all the kids were into Zepplin and Kiss, I was listening to jazz fusion, programming rock and so many interesting thing’s.

Another great musician gone...

I’ve read his nickname came from his aunt, but never the story behind that.

Prayers for his family and friends.

I’m enjoying (slightly mournfully and smiling at the same time) “Spain” (with orchestra) as I type this.

(One of the lesser known performances)

or, more “conventionally”(?) and also great:
