There was a nice tribute on NPR yesterday too. The audio on that page is what aired; the writing is a better piece.

Just after he finished one of his countless gigs. Sad to know another icon is gone. Imagine all the people that danced to the music that he helped create. The first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Donald "Duck" Dunn is that I once read he never replaced his bass strings, to keep that authentic sound.

 
Very sad. RIP Duck!{#Cheers}

 Too young. But he went out still doing what he loved and then peacefully in his sleep. {#Cheers}
