I was on Amazon ready to order a new Junie CD with "Shake Like T Mofo" and what do I see, a new Junie set is going to be released on June 9th. I don't know if this had been planned already befor his passing earlier this year or not.

16. Granny's Funky Rolls Royce (Mono)

Awesome. Well deserved. A shame it'd take for his death to see Morrison's full discography to get the full necessary recognition.

George Clinton said he's the greatest musician he's ever worked with. And GC has worked with Bootsy, Sly, Roger Troutman and Prince.

that says alot

I listen to some of the stuff he did on his own or with P-Funk, and it's mind boggling really. The arrangements he puts together are crazy. There’s a reason the Ohio Players found the light from a struggling band to hit makers when he joined. There’s a reason P-Funk had it’s greatest success when he came a long.

All of them were one man bands. Sly Stone, Bootsy Collins, Junie, Prince and Roger Troutman. But listening to Junie's work, it's something about them that's very different. He's the strongest musician of the five. I think only Prince could see him, IMO. Junie's melodies were complicated and did a lot of things in one song.

I go long periods without looking on the Non-Prince forum--I'm glad I checked in while this thread was on the first page. I'll be picking this up, I know.

Should be coiming in any day now.

This Junie collection is awesome! So much depth to his music and funky as hell....Now, I need to get the rest of his albums.
