Lonnie Mack passed away


Recommended Posts

Cincinnati (Aurora, Indiana) native and pioneering rock guitar player, Lonnie Mack, passed away late last week.

Recorded "Memphis" and "Wham" that were big hits in the 60's.  Performed in Vegas, played as a session musician for countless recordings, etc.

Truly a great musical artist.
