You must be referring to Berry Oakley, the original Allman Bros bassist. Like Duane Allman, Oakley was killed in a motorcycle accident which happened 13 months after Duane. He died less than three blocks from the site of Duanes fatal accident in Macon, Ga.

My favorite of Oakleys work is the rumbling bass intro on the 1969 studio track Whipping Post.
