Nikki was an impressive individual. Well-dressed and well-mannered, not in the least snobbish as some lesser than him musicians often are, a genuine rock n roller who fought for his art.

When I learned about his death it was difficult to believe that the cause was drugs.

They say that he had a heart failure while asleep and never woke up.
