RIP Marv Tarplin - Smokey Robinson and The Miracles guitarist June 13 1941 - Sept 30 2011
Miracle Marv was one of just a few Motown guitarists who was actually a proper band member rather than a session player.
If nothing else he earns a footnote in the history of popular music for that mournful guitar intro to Smokey Robinson and The Miracles wonderful The Tracks Of My Tears. RIP Marv.
