sad to hear 2 of the most important people in the worlds music industry have passed away recently

1st Rupert Neve, the genius behind Rupert Neve Pro Audio equipment passed age 94 years old.
I am sure his genius will be missed.

2ndly, another genius of a different type. Chick Corea, the infamous American jazz composer, keyboardist, bandleader, and occasional percussionist. well known for his work with Weather Report Jazz Fusion.

for sure.
Rupert Neve really was a genius, his large format mixing consoles and other pro audio equipment has been used in top pro recording studios across the planet.

Also Chick Corea's work with Weather Report, is likely some of the most famous and well loved Jazz Fusion in history.
