I had no idea he was 80 but then, Maynard was older than I thought when he died too. Anyway, Donald played with many groups and was always a distinctive horn. Bless him and RIP...

In the 70's he had so many good songs on Spaces and Places and Stepping Into Tomorrow, timeless pieces of fabulous music. Rest in Peace Donald and thanks for giving us so much pleasure through the years!
