Gap Band member Anthony Walker has died. His younger brother, Dr. Eric Walker, broke the news that he passed away last Monday at an Ohio hospital after having complications from neck surgery. It’s not clear what type of procedure he was undergoing at the time of his passing. Famously known as “Baby Gap,” Anthony joined the group in 1979. A celebration of his life will take place in Chicago later this week.
