Today, Doug Riley, one of Canada's foremost musicians, died of a sudden heart attack at age 62.

I spent many evenings listening to Doug play live in Toronto, mesmerized by his wizardry on the Hammond B3 organ, and I will dearly miss the opportunity to hear him play again.

Doug was one of the most respected musicians in Canada, and a giant in every genre in which he chose to play, from R&B, to Rock, Jazz, and even classical

Thanks for the music Doug.
