Donald “Duck” Dunn, 70, legendary bass player, dies in his sleep after finishing two sets at a club in Tokyo. He was a seminal part of the Stax Records’ Memphis sound, playing bass on Otis Redding’s “Respect,” Sam & Dave’s “Hold On, I’m Coming” and Albert King’s “Born Under A Bad Sign.” (You may know him best from the movie “The Blues Brothers.”)
R.I.P.
