Skip Pitts (I think that was his name) used to sit in with a band I played with up in Memphis while I lived there. He did the original wha-wha guitar part to 'Shaft' and other tunes by amongst others, Al Green.
He was a BAAAAD mother...(shut yo' mouth!)
Even had the good grace to play his famous part while we stumbled through that great song! A class guy.
