I don't have much to add to what everyone else will say, except to note a radio interview I heard with him years ago. That long organ riff in the middle of "Light My Fire," where he plays 4 against 3 so powerfully, he credited to John Coltrane. I never heard that until he said it, but once you know it, you listen to the track and say "How did I ever miss it?"
A lot of life is that way, isn't it? Completely opaque, and then embarrassingly obvious.
Our first few minutes in heaven will be like that, I suspect; eyes darting sideways a little sheepishly and saying "Yeah, I shoulda seen that."
