I love bass players and am pained by the death of Booker T and The MGs bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn.
Weird to me that the last place I saw him play was in Memphis, with Huey Lewis and the News.

The Commercial Appeal will have much more about Duck, probably written by ace music writer Bill Mehr and probably on their Web-site later today and the print edition tomorrow. Today, Mehr does offer this great story about Lisa Marie Presley and the release of her new record:
