This news truly saddened me. While many of Jarreau's albums left me wanting more because of the amazing talent he possessed, I always found his live performances quite enjoyable. Not long after the release of my favorite Jarreau album, We Got By, I was fortunate enough to sit in on a radio interview with Jarreau conducted by one of my friends. Because of my tremendous affection for jazz, I always wished Al had chosen the career of a jazz singer, rather than that of a jazzy singer. My wishes aside, no doubt Al was a wonderfully talented vocalist. Through his music, he will live on. Peace, Al!

Totally agree - he was a joy to see perform in person.
