Sad News !

Ray Manzarek, a founding member with The Doors whose keyboard work was a touchstone of hits like Break On Through to the Other Side and Light My Fire, has died at the age of 74 after a battle with cancer

If ever the word innovative meant anything it was in relation to Ray's imaginative and ground-breaking Keyboard playing without which The Doors would never have been !!.
A fascinating Musician !......RIP,
TT
