Got to give my respects to this brother as well. His music was introduced to me through my pop's heavy record collection. My favorite is the keyboard work he did on Earth, Wind, & Fire's Sun Goddess. Nice when you add the fact that he helped Maurice White get his foot in the recording industry when White was a part of his own group the Ramsey Lewis Trio before leaving to eventually create one of the greatest music groups of all time. Much respect...
