Slim Dunlap, Guitarist for the Replacements, Dies at 73
Slim Dunlap, the second and final lead guitarist for the '80s/'90s alternative band the Replacements, died at age 73.
Bob “Slim” Dunlap, a guitarist and singer-songwriter best known for his tenure in the alternative band the Replacements during the final years of their original ’80s/’90s run, died Wednesday at age 73. Dunlap joined the Replacements after founding member Bob Stinson was kicked out of the band, adding a more stabilizing presence to the group while keeping the musical rowdiness high. Others who recorded Dunlap material as part of that effort included Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, Jeff Tweedy, Soul Asylum and Frank Black.
