Dukeofburgundy Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 George Brown, long-time drummer of Kool & The Gang has died. Given how important drums are to soul music (and other popular music genres) I thought his passing should be noted on this website. R.I.P. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/nov/17/george-brown-kool-the-gang-drummer-dead?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other Great funky drumming on this Billboard # 1 R&B cut. 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Candiman Posted November 22 Share Posted November 22 Yes, RIP George. His passing actually made the rolling news headlines on Sky. Great memories of Kool & The Gang and Fatback Band records spun at the first discos I went to at a local rugby club back in the early 70s. Their Light Of Worlds album was one of first soul/funk albums I bought. Still cherish (no pun intended) it now. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
