I had the great honor to hear Mr. Pickens play on several occasions, and to speak with him once or twice during my visits to Chicago. A wonderful musician and a nice man. If you've never heard his Christmas album and his two recordings of spirituals, please do seek them out. R.I.P. dear sir, and thank you so very much.

Sorry to hear this, RIP. I saw him a couple of times with Elvin, one occasion at Carnegie Hall.  A fine player.
