I've just heard that jazz trumpet legend Freddie Hubbard died earlier, I think today. I think it was to do with complications after his heart attack earlier this year. Someone may be able to correct me on this or find out some more information- I don't really feel like looking into it. I am deeply saddened to hear of this tragedy- he was a massive influence on a me and always a pleasure to listen to, and I am sure many of you guys feel the same. 'Sorry if you have just heard of it this way.

"Freddie Lives."
