Steve Cropper, Blues Brothers band member and Booker T. & the MG's guitarist, has died. He was 84.
Cropper is most known for his time in Booker T. & the MG's. The band consisted of Cropper, keyboard player Booker T. Jones, bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn and drummer Al Jackson. They were a racially integrated band, which was rare for the time.
"When you walked in the door at Stax, there was absolutely no color. We were all there for the same reason — to get a hit record," Cropper told AP in 2020.
