Man, I'm so sorry to hear this. A few years ago I played keyboards for him for a show we did at the Catalina Jazz Club in Hollywood. I absolutely love his music! Rest In Paradise Brotha Michael.

Michael was an underrated genius whose contributions to the music industry will be felt long after he is gone. Bravo Michael because you had so much more to give.

One of my favorite duets by him was this gem with Rena Scott
