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.

Ah man, a great but unheralded guitarist. I really dug the groove and feel of his playing. Thanks for the great music Marv...

He was one of my favorite guitarists, highly underrated.
