R.I.P. Bob Babbitt


Wow he's one of those guys who you never hear about (well at least I didn't) and yet he's played on so many awesome tracks.  He played bass on "Midnight Train to Georgia" by Gladys Knight & the Pimps.  8)

Did you ever see "Standing in The Shadows of Motown" DVD?  It's the story of the Funk brothers, and it's quite good.
