murdered by his manager and his wife, MAFIA (strongly suspected and rumored; music biz evil; also in those days, hate against black americans)
he was about to start a recording company with James Brown and was leaving his wife
the "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay" is an insdie joke for his killers, who paid for that song to be "top of the pop"
of course they got the money for it by then
No one realizes now how popular were his stages shows. And what a massively talented entertainer.
I believe few cideo recordings exist of it.
