Kind of got lost in the shuffle but Robbie Shakespeare, bass player for Sly and Robbie past away earlier in the month. Sly and Robbie had some success as a reggae act, but they are probably more well known for all the session work they did and a bunch of producing too. And, for the life of me I can't figure out what song this is. I did some internet sleuthing but couldn't come up with anything.

I'm a little too young to have gotten into Commander Cody but I remember some older cousins who were into him and I had a sense that he was kinda a freaky country guy. This was their only "hit" but they had a pretty loyal following for a while in the early 70s and definitely had a proto-influence on alt-country bands in the 90s. George Frayne, AKA Commander Cody, passed away a week ago from cancer at the age of 77.
