suites Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Yeah. And it's only going go get worse in the next few years. I saw him on Colbert a few weeks ago and he looked pretty sick. He played till the end. A real great player for sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I don't think Bernie was with P-Funk any of the times I saw them, but I got to see him as part of the Jack Bruce/Ginger Baker band in 1990 or 1991. That was one of the most memorable shows I've ever been to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouieB Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 This is sad. I agree that alot of our favorite musicians are getting old (the 60s and 70s are getting to be a long time ago now) and we will be checking in here regularly for the foreseeable future. Gonna play some PFunk on my show tomorrow. See thread. LouieB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
