Re: R.I.P. Leroi Moore.
So Dave played Mercy w/ Branford Marsalis for the United We Sing show yesterday. I've said this/pointed it out before, but Branford was a clear influence on Roi and they also approach improvising/writing parts for pop/rock similarly. While it was distinctly Branford playing, the lines and inflections he played could have easily come from Roi.
