We are all very proud. He was a friend of my Dad's.

He played some of the grooviest bass lines ever.

'Crocodiles' in particular is a great little line that requires no small amount of skill to nail without fudging any notes. An unusual, highly strung (a la Sheehan) stance with a rapid upward picking action....well worth checking out. |

Hip Pockets http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcFq1...69D24C6F3068FC
Saw them, Billy Cobham George Duke Band, at the Paramount Theatre Portland, back in da day. Then saw Billy and Alphonso with Bob Weir, Bobby and the Midnites at Euphoria tavern.
Yeah that Alphonso turned my head around...
