There used to be an "easy listening" radio station here that played him lots. Since it folded. I haven't heard much about him.

He wrote the lyrics and sang the theme for the old Cybill Shepherd-Bruce Willis show, Moonlighting.

jarreau connotes within me - smooth and melodius.

It's a shame that his death was needed to remind me of this talent.
