Attention! The funkiest drummer (still) alive needs your help! I'm sure the funksters about you are familar with the funkiest drummer ever, James Brown's Clyde Stubblefield, the most sampled drummer of the hip hop era. I am sorry I have to inform you that Clyde had surgery on 23 May and 11 July for bladder cancer. Presently, he is taking treatments. The prognosis is very good. Yet, there are many expenses to be incurred with his illness.
As with many musicians, he has no insurance coverage. Benefits have been held in the Madison, WI area. Luckily, more are scheduled. I know most of you are hurting for cash, but maybe some may help Clyde with a little donation. I will do so myself, and I heard George Clinton gave some $$$ as well. Thank you for your time and attention in helping Clyde. Please contact Kathy at FunkMasters L.L.P. 1445 Arrowhead Place Murfreesboro, TN 37129.1002 615.893.0115 615.631.4778 Cell "Peace and Benz -- The future, made in Germany"  | |

What Clyde needs to do for donations is to set up a fund, kinda like NPGMC, maybe he can call it "Clyde's Music Club".
That sort of thing works for Prince, so tell him to give that a try! Maybe the hip hop community can pay the brother for taking his samples??? Xperience the Peach & Black Podcast: http://peachandblack.podbean.com/

JB is not really known among his musical family to support its suffering members, ya know... "Peace and Benz -- The future, made in Germany" | |
