Donald "Duck" Dunn, longtime bass player for the '60s band "Booker T and the MGs" ("Green Onions").

Those guys could really lay down a groove. Spent many a cruise back then, listening to 'em...

"He was touring with Steve Cropper in Japan when he passed"

Better that than drooling in a rest home. Hope I'm as lucky to be doing something I love when I go...

For real, he and Colonel Steve Cropper were still together after all these years? That's awesome. Very sad news that he has died, I love the old Stax records music.
