I'm big JZ fan, saw him a few times with Weather Report. Most people don't know that he wrote "Mercy Mercy Mercy", made amous by Cannonball Adderly. RIP JOE!

Joe was one of the most musical synthesists ever to play the synthesizer. His chordal textures on Rhodes and acoustic piano were stunning as well...truly an all-round genius keyboardist. He will be hugely missed...a musician's musician.
