| | | | Funkadelic/Parliament DVD?
Sign in to disble this ad
I bought a DVD with George Clinton/Funkadelic/Parliament and there's a singer who shouts a out something like this at various times:
"Hey Sly!.......Hey Bootsy! and his rubber band!"
They seem to be playing in houston because they say houston a couple times in the end. Are Sly (and the family stone?) and Bootys band playing too on the dvd?
*Edit:* Who's the bassist who plays the Rickenbacker 4001/3 in the background? Bootsy? |

Bootsy is playing the tamborine at the end. I've never seen Bootsy playing with P-Funk on bass. The guy on the Rick is probably the same guy who was plaing the Jazz in the movie PCU.

That is one of the reason's they used to play "bring down sweet chariot let me ride" They knew he was terminally ill. The lead guitarist with the funky hat is Eddie "maggot brain" Hazel, He passed away in the early 90's. Btw he was from Brooklyn N.Y.

I've got a bunch of PFunk/Bootsy stuff on dvd and we always just call him diaper man. He's the ultra funky rhythm dude shredding on various guitars and...he sports a diaper.

Mike Hampton's claim to fame is stuff like "knee deep" and "one nation". I saw Mike playing a Parker fly last year

Really, now.....why else would I of all people ask about the guitar brand?

By the way I find it odd that they have the name "maggot brain" under Mike Hampton when Mike hadn't even joined p-funk till 77-78. Maggot brain was played by Eddie "Maggot brain" Hazel in 1971 when he was with Funkadelic. It was Mike who was Eddie's replacement at lead guitar on the mothership tour.

He's on Funkadelic's "Let's Take it the Stage" and Parliament's "Chocolate City" which both came out in '75. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
