    1. singing Diana Ross songs into countless jump rope handles as a little girl, I must say I have never seen anyone wearing a diaper while singing Motown. Not sure I like the look.

      1. He died in 2010 of lung and brain cancer. Also known as Starchild, he was a guitar player in various George Clinton bands (Parliament, Funkadelic, P-Funk, the P-Funk Allstars, etc.)

        If you’ve never seen Clinton live, it’s hard to put Shider into context.  George Clinton’s live performances are about much more than music, they’re performance art.  The stage is very busy at all times.  This  video is a pretty good example when the camera pulls back.  There are all sorts of little clumps of musicians all over the stage, each doing their own thing, but all in the same killer groove.  People are always walking on and off stage, joining the groove (Note Shaquille O’Neal in the video).

        The key to understanding it all is what George Clinton once said: “Free your mind and your ass will follow.”

        1. and now I see what you mean. I do remember him on SNL as Dr. Funkenstein. He makes the 70s Elton John look like Pat Boone. I can see how he was a big influence on Sly and the Family Stone, AWB and James Brown, among others, although I don’t remember any of them being nearly as flamboyant as he is. This list brings back a lot of great musical memories. Some of those songs were positively “scandolous” when they came out, which is probably why we loved them so much. I think I danced to Brick House more than any other song. Greatest party songs ever. http://www.digitaldreamdoor.co

          Now I’ve got to play some of these great songs.

          I always thought Tom Jones was singing the “Huh!” part on this one.

  1. (It has more to do with the fact my 10-yr old niece now has the entire DEVO catalog on her iPod, and sings along in the car with “Gates of Steel.”)

  2. who successfully angered more Coloradans this week than Scott Gessler ever has. Congratulations, Mr. Speaker, that is difficult to do.
