“Louis 'Thunder Thumbs' Johnson was one of the greatest bass players to ever pick up the instrument, as a member of the Brothers Johnson, we shared decades of magical times working together in the studio and touring the world. From my albums 'Body Heat' and 'Mellow Madness,' to their platinum albums 'Look Out for #1,' 'Right On Time,' 'Blam' and 'Light Up the Night,' which I produced, to Michael's solo debut 'Off the Wall,' I considered Louis a core member of my production team. He was a dear and beloved friend and brother, and I will miss his presence and joy of life every day.” WorldLifeLooksBodyLightTogetherJoyNightPlayerTeamMissingBrotherWallMembersPicksMadnessInstrumentsDearAlbumsProductionsStudiosDecadesCoreBelovedHeatWorking TogetherSoloThunderTouringJohnsonBassThumbsJoy Of LifeLight UpMellowDebutPlatinumOff The WallBass PlayersBeloved FriendsBody Heat Author:Quincy Jones

Each member of the trio gets important solos, but there is also a real ensemble character.” PeopleTwoImportantRealCharacterStoriesUseThreeMembersInstrumentsCrowdsTricksSoloEnsembleTrios Author:Richard Dyer
“Before I joined Kraftwerk in 1971, I played guitar in a band called Spirits of Sound, whose members included (at times) amongst others singer Wolfgang Riechmann (Sky Records released his only solo album Wunderbar shortly after his death in 1978) and drummer Wolfgang Flür (later on Kraftwerk, now solo). The music of S.o.S. in the mid 60's first was the English pop and rock music of the times (Beatles, Kinks, Rolling Stones ).” FirstsSpiritSoundRecordsSkyRocksBandMembersStonesGuitarAlbumsPopsSingersRollingSoloDrummerRock MusicRolling StonesKink Author:Michael Rother
