Wah Wah Watson has gone

[Hellzero]

Another Motown legend has gone on the 24th of October at 67 years old. Melvin Ragin aka Wah Wah Watson was one of the Motown guitar players. You certainly have heard him at least once. He was a real wah wah master, hence his nickname. You can hear his guitar on the fabulous hit Papa was a Rollin' Stone. May he rest in peace.

Another sad loss...and not that old really..

We're getting to the stage where most of the musicians who made the really good music from the 60s/70s are getting to the age where we can expect to lose them in the not too distant.... 

Hopefully they will receive the respect in their passing that equals the love of the music that they made.

RIP

Sad news.

How sad. I really loved the polish his playing gave to some great music. Weirdly I was just listening to Quincy Jones’ Body Heat, which I love, with his lovely playing on it.

RIP.
