Exit Joe Z

Jazz fusion giant Joe Zawinul died early Tuesday at 75.

Zawinul played with Maynard Ferguson and Dinah Washington before joining alto saxophonist great Cannonball Adderley for nine years. He then moved on to a brief collaboration with Miles Davis, at the time Davis was entering the electric arena, before getting involved with the Weather Report, and later, the Syndicate.

Hardcore players from the jazz world are dying off, yet Panic! At The Disco lives. That's just wrong.
