Looks like the news is directed towards this bout with cancer. I never heard anything and didn't even know he was sick. Sad, he has always been an amazing influence.

I like the sound of the vox as well. I think he is dead though.

He used a Vox Continental and Kalamazoo orgen, not Farfisa. Sorry, also heard yet it is a hoax.

Sorry to hear of his death. I liked his playing and the Farfisa sound.

My wife hated the chessy farfisa sound - but I loved the studio work - he was great with that Doors mysterioso sound........
