The legendary bassist has died at age 60 as confirmed by his brother George on Facebook today.
Louis played with his brother on hits like Stomp. Strawberry Letter 23 and I'll Be Good To You.
He also played on hits like Rise by Herb Alpert, Give Me The Night by George Benson and several by Michael Jackson like Billie Jean and Don't Stop Til You Get Enough, among others.
Well known for his slap technique which is heard on their hit Stomp, he was nicknamed Thunder Thumbs.

My love for them is huge as I use a few of their songs as theme music on my Music Expert Retro Countdown. Very sad day!
