Re: Lost another legend.

Yep.  One of my favorite bands.  I still like the old "trivia" question:

Q:  Who was the bass player for the Doors?

A:  Ray Manzarek's left hand.

Re: Lost another legend.

AWWW crap! That sucks! Ray was the musical master mind of that band!

Now I am even more happy that Skillrex was able to get Ray, Robbie and John together and had them make original music with him.  it was the first time they made new music in many yrs together.
I posted once befor, but this merits a repost:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz7ZooGmx30
