Duck Dunn has been the bass player for Booker T and the MG's since 1965. Dunn was born in 1941 on Nov. 24. He was not the bass player for the band in 1962 when it recorded "Green Onions," but he made up for that by being THE soul bassist since 1965 on the Sam and Dave catalog, Otis Redding, Staple Singers, Wilson Pickett, and countess others. He is the bass player that defines soul bass players. Like Steve Cropper, Dunn never overplayed, and was a servant to the song.
