Title: Louis Johnson, Dead at Age 60
Post by: Skhilled on May 23, 2015, 09:14:24 AM
One of my greatest idols and arguably one of the greatest bassist of all time was died. He was one half on the Brothers Johnson, along with his brother, George. Not only was his own songs great but he also played bass on albums for Michael Jackson's Thriller, Michael McDonald, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin and many more. He also wrote a lot of songs with Quincy Jones and for many others.

You will definitely be missed!!!  :(
