He wrote and performed some of the greatest Motown and other bass lines and is arguably one of the most most talented, knowledgeable , innovative and versatile , tasty, in the pocket bass players of all time. Seems so very humble and engaging . Sad loss far to soon , Often as the true great and rare talents are. Respect!!!! Reply

When I first heard midnight train to Georgia, I fell in love with his playing.

[@anniedogmine]

Me too. It never gets old. ,not my favorite song but one of my most favorite bass lines.

[@saulpeter]

Bob, you'll live on forever thru your music, and you can be proud to know that your bass playing will inspire bassists for generations to come...RIP.

[@bigbass421]

Bob, a lot of us grew up listening to you, and we didn't know you. Ah, but we did...before we even knew your name. Even after finding out who the great James Jamerson was, and STILL didn't know you... you surprised us all with your skill and incredible performances. "Tears Of A Clown," is absolutely one of the best bass performances on a pop music track -ever. Your recorded legacy is incredible. R.I.P. my twin brother!

What a sweet humble man. And a mother f'er bass player. One of the all time greats.

"Signed, Sealed, Delivered" bassline was maybe Mr. Babbitt's greatest...i love it

Midnight Train To Georgia is greatest bass track ever

[@lclaughton]

Very cool to have had the musical experience Mr piano man!! I have to say I really do have such respect for Bob and what he has achieved on the bass and how willing he was to share his years with all of us. All the very best to you Bob...which I could have told you that in person.

R.I.P. Mr. Babbit! I learned my craft as a drummer locking into the sonic foundations guys like you contributed to Music.

[@RaytheMon]

RIP Bob... Damn...

[@SarahJonesBass]

What a lovely man. When they make the movie of Bob's life story, they really have to get Robert De Niro to play the lead role. Thanks for the music. Bob. X

Check his mantel, "It is never too late to live happily ever after." Wow.
