The legendary Ray Manzarek passed away today at the age of 74. You all know who he is and his impact to our world. Not necessarily a synthesist, but a true keyboard player that started in a band that showed keyboards could be just as powerful as guitars in classic rock. He continued on to do great things.

Be sure to see this post featuring some of Ray's great personality. I still don't know what that is in the background.

We will miss you Ray.

via Wikipedia: "Raymond Daniel Manczarek, Jr., known as Ray Manzarek (February 12, 1939 – May 20, 2013[1]), was an American musician, singer, producer, film director, writer, and co-founder and keyboardist of The Doors from 1965 to 1973, Nite City from 1977–1978 and Manzarek-Krieger since 2001."

You can find Ray's official website here.

Below are just a few of the classics Ray brought us.

"Here I'm using the Sample and Hold on mainly the Filter, but the Oscillators do play a part as well... set to various intervals - unison and also a 3rd and a 5th apart."
