The topic is . I'm going to start (and possibly finish, I'm busy today) with some Parliament-Funkadelic.

Inevitably, many members of the P-Funk collective are no long with us, but I'm particularly going to focus on three who passed away at an appallingly young age: drummer Tiki Fulwood, and guitarists Glenn Goins and Eddie Hazel, all core members of the band(s) in the mid-70s. I might also add bass singer Sting Ray Davis, who lived a little longer, but not nearly long enough.

Unfortunately, to my knowledge - and please, anyone correct me if you know better - there's not a single track on which Fulwood, Goins, Hazel and Davis all appear. Specifically, Goins and Hazel rarely performed together until the period after Fulwood had quit.

(To anyone who isn't entirely familiar with Parliament-Funkadelic, this might seem odd, multiple simultaneous members of a band not playing together. But it's perfectly normal in George Clinton's world.)

So, I have two tracks. Firstly, a live performance of Standing On The Verge Of Gettin' It On from 1976, featuring Davis, Goins and Hazel:

And then Side Effects, which does feature Fulwood, but no Goins.

This week's is . I often post live versions of tracks to the various hashtags, so I need to find something other than my usual go-to live performances today!

Anna Meredith - Paramour
youtube.com/watch?v=Ny_8rly0TM
(I saw Anna last year - she is just so much fun, I'd encourage everyone to go and watch her if you get the chance)

Sam and Dave - Soul Man
youtube.com/watch?v=5ONNSlk--t
(Sam and Dave were such fantastic performers - plus, look at those sax players!)

James Brown - Super Bad
youtube.com/watch?v=oPY7P-bEGZ
(If I could go back in time and see any artist play live, it would James in this period, with the very best JBs lineup, Bootsy, Catfish, Maceo, St Clair Pinckney, Fred Wesley etc)

Parliament-Funkadelic - Give Up The Funk (Tear The Roof Off The Sucker)
youtube.com/watch?v=jJvjWh2Vhu
(More Bootsy! More Maceo! More Fred Wesley!)

ADG7 (Ak Dan Gwang Chil) - Whatever
youtube.com/watch?v=vr02zU9R1C
(Had never heard of them before I saw them on the recent Glastonbury coverage. Are my new favourite band. They are amazing.)

Oh, yeah. "U.S. Customs Coast Guard Dope Dog" by George Clinton off of NORML's Hempilation album SLAMS. "There's more profit in pretending that we're stopping it than selling it." "Old Mac Uncle had some drugs, C-I-A-I-O..." Glad I re-found that one. And discovered Bad Habitat while I was at it. A "Love is Alive" sample that namechecks 3rd Bass's "Wordz of Wizdom" that, itself, sampled "Love is Alive?" Bring back this kind of music, please, kids?

Vanaf 1972 zal hij in de band en van stappen, en zet de op de wereldkaart.
Zijn basistechnieken waren ongezien en hadden niet enkel invloed op de funk
