Last I heard he was living in his van on the street in Santa Monica. Got money and mental problems. Really sad.

I notice Sly used a Hammond (guessing?) B3.

Hammond organs sound like no other. Synth can’t compare.

One child grows up to be,
Somebody who just loves to learn

And a-a ~

‘Nother child grows up to be,
Somebody you’d just love to burn

Ma loves the both of them,
Ya see it’s in the blood...yeah...

Both kids are good to Mom,
Blood’s thicker than the mud - it’s a family affair...

Hey Larry what’s-his-face,
Said he’d teach me how to play the bass...

Since we got a little time to waste,
We might as well get it on...

I confess...I never missed Soul Train every Saturday when I was a kid.

You’ll love this shocker.

George and Bootsy were the best.

They don’t make glam like that any more.
