    Steve Cropper - Legendary guitarist

    I thought somebody else might've already posted this. Helped to write some all time soul classics: (Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay, Soul Man, Knock on Wood, In the Midnight Hour and Green Onions among many others.

    I first knew of him from watching the Blues Brothers movie. Then later on I got to know his music by listening to the songs he played guitar on. Very talented musician!I
    Always will think of Dock Of The Bay fondly. Supposedly it was the number one song on Billboard's charts, the week I was born. Also, there is the line in the song "I left my home in Georgia". My mom's name was Georgia.
