By now, it goes without saying, but his playing was groundbreaking and the 70s "plugged in" sound on his records is still fantastic late night listening. "Tepid CTI turds"?!? GTFOHWTBS!

Listening to his solo on "Three Blind Mice" (on the same-titled album by Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers) is absolutely riveting and inspiring.

Freddie was one of the first jazz dudes I ever copped and got schooled by... when I discovered Red Clay and Straight Life, my musical world expanded exponentially.
This is sad news, RIP... I'm gonna regret never getting to him in concert.
