Blues Brothers bassist passes away. I was so bummed when I read this this morning. I met him a few years back at a Crystal Head Vodka signing Dan Aykord was doing, Dunn couldn't have been a nicer guy.

I never knew how big a musician he was until i looked it up. To me he has always been part of the Blues Brothers band first and foremost.
Should I do it? Should I?
JEDIFYFED!!!!!

Aw, man... Well, thanks for the music and one of the great lines in The Blues Brothers: "Why not? If the ****** fits, wear it."
YAY!!!! for once I'm not the one that got JEDIFYFED!!!!!
Man, he was a legend so much music has his imprint on it!
Very sad to read of this.
Back in the day, used to go to an old independant theatre called the Valhalla that screened the Blues Brothers every friday night at Midnight, think they did it for over ten years, love The Duck.
Thats a shame. At least we still have Matt 'Guitar' Murphy (saw him play years ago) and "'Blue' Lou Marini.
My favorite line of his from the "Blues Brothers": "We had a band powerful enough to turn goat p*ss into gasoline. "
That's so sad. Oddly enough, I started playing Soul Man on the guitar a few days ago just out of the blue.
