From Tulsa World (via The Daily Swarm):
The “Godfather of Bass Guitar,” Robert Wilson of the legendary Tulsa R&B and funk group the GAP Band, died Sunday in Los Angeles. He was 53, confirmed his publicist and manager, Don Jackson, in a late-night Sunday phone call to the Tulsa World.
Wilson died from a massive heart attack in his home, Jackson said. His family became concerned about him when they didn’t receive their regular phone calls, and his adult son found his body on Sunday afternoon in Palmdale, Calif.
