He passed away at home in Gore Springs, in his home state of Mississippi; his daughter Terez Willis said that he had suffered complications resulting from his childhood polio condition. As a member of the Funk Brothers, Eddie Willis helped create some of the most distinguished soul music to hit the charts, said the Recording Academy in a statement. His guitar playing was heard worldwide on countless Motown Records classics, including the Marvelettes’ ‘Please Mr. Postman’ and Stevie Wonder’s ‘I Was Made to Love Her’ and ‘My Cherie Amour. In his 2003 memoir Motown: The View From The Bottom, Willis’ fellow Funk Brother Jack Ashford wrote: Joe Messina, Eddie Willis and Robert White always held down the guitar section. If all three were not on a session, two would definitely be there. How could three guitarists not get in each other’s way and still be effective?

Motown set up a Quality Control team that would decide which songs were good enough to be released as singles. Motown was small, but it was a juggernaut, and as the name of their original main headquarters and studio, Hitsville, . makes clear, the goal was to make hit songs that didn’t just appeal to black audiences but that would also cross over to the mainstream. Its fun lyrics and funky beat helped it into the Top 10 and Motown quickly put together the album Here Comes The Judge which included previous singles. Other album highlights include Don’t Mess With My Weekend and another comedy-inspired song Here Comes Fat Albert. On the cusp of stardom, he was tragically killed in a boating accident not long after recording sessions for his second album. Martha and the Vandellas created some of Motown’s biggest hits (before Gordy put all his attention on the Supremes).
