oh that is terrible news... didn't hear of anything health wise leading up to this. Raff mentioned to me hearing some word of him perhaps suffering from depression.  RIP to one of the true greats.

Very sorry to hear of this news. Bundles is one of the top albums ever made, and he was a big reason why! RIP.

I saw him once in a very small club in Eureka California more than 30 years ago.  The best guitar player I have ever seen and I have seen a lot.  A terrible loss to the world of music.  Condolences to his family and friends.
