Tim Shellabarger is probably best known as the bass player for Will Sessions, who have gained a reputation as perhaps the best modern day funk band in Detroit. Tim also busted out his solo 45 that night under the moniker T Bottoms, where Tim plays all the instruments and totally kicks ass. He’s also a Ferndale resident and super great dude. The digital transfer of the 90-minute cassette tape from that night is below for your enjoyment.
