From wikipedia "On June 22, 1988 Jesse Ed Davis collapsed and was pronounced dead in a laundry room in Venice, California...... He was 43 years old" Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

I really like the stuff he did with John Trudell (I gotta check out the original version of 'AKA Grafitti Man'). I was surprised to find out the records I have that he plays on too ('Endless Boogie' - John Lee Hooker). I'd really like to find the solo stuff he put out. See what he sounded like up front and personal...

I didn't know he played with John. I shot some film of John lee Hooker Jr. at Park City U.T. last winter. I think Jesse did some work with Stevey rae Vaughn. to.
