Written By: Philip Eno on 06/24/16 at 10:28 am

Trumpeter Wayne Jackson, who formed the Memphis Horns duo with saxophonist Andrew Love, has died of congestive heart failure at the age of 74. Jackson and Love played together on 52 number one songs, supporting the likes of Elvis Presley, Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin and the Doobie Brothers. Isaac Hayes, Sam & Dave and Alicia Keys were among other acts they worked with. Jackson's widow Amy said her husband had "led an incredible life" and left "an amazing music legacy". Mrs Jackson said she was by his side on Tuesday night when he died in hospital in Memphis.

RIP, Mr. Jackson...  Thanks for all the cooooool horns.  :)
