R.I.P. Wilton Felder
« on: September 28, 2015, 05:07:48 PM »
I recently learned that Wilton Felder passed away yesterday on my Facebook news feed, which I have several TWC musicians I am following. He is known to us long-time viewers for his song "Lillies on the Nile" from his Forever Always CD, one of my favorite songs on that Spring 1994 playlist. RIP Wilton, you will be missed

They also used two of his songs in the mid 80s, as well as several songs by the Crusaders (which he was a member of).

His music did bring back memories. I know that he will be missed.

Wow, that is so sad. He will be greatly missed! His song "Let's Spend Some Time" was used on the October 2006 playlist, and ironically enough I was listening to it last night. O_o
