RIP Al Jarreau - I loved "We're In This Love Together" back in the day. I can't say that I was a great fan otherwise. However, Al Jarreau was clearly a gentleman and an accomplished vocalist. If the Grammy Awards mean anything, he is without question one of the greatest. He certainly deserves to be honored here. Rest in peace Mr. Jarreau, we're all in this love together man...

Very sad news. Was a huge fan since discovering him in 1983. Vale.
Always surrounded himself with the best session muso's. In this video none other than Joe Sample (RIP) and Steve Gadd.

"Stop Making Sense" and "Heart Of Gold" are two of the best concert films of all time. The man that directed them died today. Rest in Peace Jonathan Demme. You have left quite a legacy in film. You always "kept the eye (...and the ear) interested!"
