He had been taking part in the concert where the legend's children, sinlings and pals all took to the stage in memory of the star.
Johnny's daughter Rosanna Cash led the tributes to Grant on Twitter: "Grateful I was w/ (with) him last 2 days. Boom Chicka Boom, old friend... He was my 'back-up dad'. Lot of bass players owe him a debt."

He went on to retire and spent his last few years on his ranch in Mississippi.
