Yeah, this one hit hard for me, too.  Kofi was part of musical collective who's life-mission is to connect through music in the spirit of love with one another and with any receptive listeners. As that becomes more rare in this increasingly harsh world, it becomes more valuable, important and noble.  Kofi accomplished his mission and now his soul is free.  Thank you, Kofi, you are loved and missed!

As an Atlanta guy, I used to see Oteil all the time with the Aquarium Rescue Unit, but I only got to see Kofi once that I know of.  It was at a Mars Music in-store drum clinic by Butch Trucks, Jaimoe, and Marc Quinones of the Allman Brothers.  The drummers did their thing for half an hour, and then brought out Jack Pierson on guitar and Kofi on hammond organ and flute to play Hotlanta, a little bit of Elizabeth Reed, and a couple of jams.  That lineup was as good as anything I ever saw at an Allman Brothers concert.  I knew of Kofi, and knew he had to be really good, but I was really knocked out by how incredible he played and how fresh all this music that I had heard a million times sounded thanks to his (and Jack's) contribution.      

 

Such a sad loss.
