Doors co-founder Ray Manzarek dies at 74

Ray Manzarek, keyboard player and founder member of the 1960s rock band The Doors, has died aged 74.
He formed the band with lead singer Jim Morrison in 1965. Manzarek, who had suffered from bile duct cancer for many years, died in a clinic in Rosenhiem, Germany, with his wife and brothers at his bedside.
They sold more than 100 million albums worldwide and Manzarek became one of the best-known keyboardists of his era, his artistry colouring tracks like Riders on the Storm and Light my Fire. 
Like Jim Morrison, Ray will ever be a music legend.
