Oh man, what a great musician and person. I remember him from the late 80's days in Austin with The Grandmothers and being a painter for awhile.
RIP, brother.

Not another. This is getting out of hand when I've known two people personally and a host of personalities going from cancer.

His trademark line was "Hi Boys and Girls, I'm Jimmy Carl Black, and I'm the Indian of the group." He has been credited on some Mothers albums as playing "drums, vocals and poverty." A benefit will be held on November 9, 2008 at the Bridgehouse II in London. A benefit concert for Black's family will be given at the Thousand Trails Campground in Acton, CA near Los Angeles, on Sunday, Dec. 7, from 11 am to 5 pm. Donations of $20 per person and $30 per couple. Kids under 12 free. Original members of the Mothers of Invention will perform along with special guest appearances.
