sad to hear of his passing. Thanks Uriel for the great groove.

"Standing In The Shadows" DVD is a fine testament to The Funk Brothers

A huge loss. Legacy here is massive. Hail the Funk Bros.

I was fortunate enough to see him perform at a Funk Brothers show in Detroit just last summer. All this talk on here about "farewell tours" is completely ridiculous. Musicians don't retire. They just keep playing until they don't.

I believe that was Benny Benjamin. Benjamin was on the Temptations' earlier hits.
