Anyone Else Listen To Amp Fiddler?

[markjazzbassist]

Amp played keys for P-Funk after Bernie Worrell left (83-90's). He's a great keys player and has 2 solo albums that are Amazing IMO. His new album just came out a month ago, Afro Strut. It's got funky P-Funk like grooves, but also some signature Amp sounds and lyrics. Raphael Saadiq plays on a track too. On his first album, Waltz of a Ghetto Fly, George Clinton guested on a track. His brother "Bubz" plays some bass on both records and sounds great.

Anyone else listen to Amp Fiddler? Thoughts?

Cool, I'll research.

I assumed this was a thread about fiddling with your amp. A lot of the time at band practice, everytime I get a chance, I'm turning knobs just to try to get things sounding a little better.
