Disco Inferno by The Trammps - Ronnie Baker on bass

[Richland123]

I always liked the funky and very cool bass lines in the song Disco Inferno by The Trammps but never knew who played them. I found out that it was Ronnie Baker, (born 1947, died 1990) who was a famous record producer, bassist, arranger and songwriter. He participated on many Gamble and Huff recordings and was one-third of the production team of Baker-Harris-Young and all three were members of The Trammps.
