   According to wikipedia, no cause of death has been established.

   He had a nice flowing style. Wkikpedia mention that referring to his legato   
   style on guitar because when he was younger, he wanted to play saxophone but   
   couldn't afford one, so he got into guitar and played it to sound as much as   
   possible like a saxophone, which often is used to play legato passages,   
   particularly when jamming.
