Lost another: Donald " Duck " Dunn R.I.P.

[dave524]

One of the best bassplayers. Played with a lot of bands and session players.

Huge loss for the bass playing as well as musical community. The man was a legend and influenced so many players... at least he died doing what he loved... just finished playing two shows in Japan and passed away.

RIP Duck!

Here's a link to the Duck... he's the dude with the pipe, for those that don't know... laying down the groove the John and Dan!

That would be his longtime buddy Steve Cropper playing on Dunn's right with the long hair, they were still playing together on his last night.

He was in one of the best movies of all time , The Blues Brothers.
