Damn right! Because it hurts much less when your loved one is killed by a white, suburban, upper middle class soccer mom driving drunk...allegedly.

chef free Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Gentlemen, Can you please respect the forum rules about political topics. It seems that the two of you tend to impose your (rather extreme) politics onto nearly EVERY topic you reply to. If you must behave as such, please use the personal messenger function.

Strider Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 (edited) Another sad and tragic end to a musician. The Temptations had two great periods. The classic David Ruffin-Eddie Kendricks period early on and then the "Psychedelic Soul" era after Dennis Edwards replaced David Ruffin. "Ball of Confusion", "Papa Was a Rolling Stone", "Just My Imagination" (covered by the Rolling Stones), were just a few of their hits during this time. R.I.P. Dennis Edwards. http://variety.com/2018/music/news/dennis-edwards-dies-dead-the-temptations-1202685852/ The latest developments coming out are disturbing. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-dennis-edwards-temptations-abuse-20180207-story.html Edited February 8, 2018 by Strider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef free Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 RIP Edwin Hawkins, he penned the Gospel classic "Oh Happy Day", he was dissed by the "church" for his secular ways but he went on to create what is now called "urban contemporary" gospel. I went to his memorial services last night and WOW! I haven't been to church for a while and these older preachers are absolute MASTERS at what they do! Praise the Lord! http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2018/02/07/church-hosts-2nd-night-of-all-star-gospel-tribute-to-edwin-hawkins/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgeholder Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 He was a great guy, had the privilege of knowing him. He played with Bob Dylan, Kenny Rogers, Johnny Rivers, then became a successful actor in many movies and tv shows. Did a TON of charity work.

I consider "Cloud Nine" to be one of the greatest singles ever. It has everything, including a perfect mix. Ruffin could have never pulled off that vocal performance as Edwards did. The yin-yang with Kendrick's falsetto is perfect on that record. Greg Reeves was a whole 13 years old when he laid down that bass line. You'd swear it was James Jamerson. Edwards' singing on "Ball of Confusion" is nothing more than the roots of Rap..."rap on Brother...rap on !" "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" was a personal song for Edwards...."dealing in death and stealing in the name of the Lord". The first 1:56 of intro to "Papa" is just simply awesome. Lots of old-time fans didn't like the Psychedelic era of the Tempts. That's how "Just My Imagination" came to be. It was an intended throwback featuring Kendricks instead of Edwards singing lead. I loved it all though. The Tempts, Marvin Gaye, Edwin Starr...etc. They were the only reason to listen to AM radio, as Motown was still singles oriented and rarely got airplay on FM. RIP Dennis.

the chase Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 (edited) Rest In Peace to Drummer Pat Torpey, age 64 due to difficulties from Parkinsons disease. Pat is best known as the Drummer for Mr Big. He also toured with Robert Plant during the Now And Zen era. He filled in on Drums while Chris Blackwell was recovering from a hand/ arm injury and was playing more of a percussion role till he recovered. Pat was a great drummer who bravely did what he could for as long as he could. Sympathies to his Family, Friends, Bandmates and Fans. Rest In Peace also to longtime Foghat Bassist, Craig MacGregor due to lung cancer. Craig played on the classic albums, Night Shift, Foghat Live, Stone Blue and Boogie Motel. He was 68. Craig is the third member of this great, and often overlooked band to pass on. Vocalist, Guitarist “Lonesome” Dave Peverett died in 2000. Lead, Slide Guitarist Rod Price died in 2005.
