This is sad news. Watson was such a bedrock stalwart musician, anchoring so many classic sides. Rest in power.
so many of my records have this man's name on them.
RIP
Oh no! That was my cat! I enjoyed his work on so many albums all these years. Rest in peace Wah, Wah.....thanks man.

67 is too young these days to clock out. RIP. He'll forever be the guitarist behind one of the most iconic openers in music history so for that, he earns a legendary send off. Rest easy, Melvin.
Saw Wah Wah last time a couple of years ago at Ray Parkers WOF Party I believe. Played on some huge hits, and he and Dennis Coffey were the go to guys who played the pedal at Motown...
Rest In Paradise Mel. Jamerson must be going nuts with Bongo AND Wah Wah riding him now!!!.
Not only an awesome musician, but an awesome name as well. Rest in peace Mr. Melvin Wah Wah Watson. :)
