Thanks! mike1762 Advanced Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 263 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Saturday, February 21, 2009 - 5:57 pm:    Too Cool!!! Wyzard was my introduction to Alembic basses. He had a white Series I too. I worked the stage for these guys back in the early 80's.

And errr....emm.................the band were great as well. mike1762 Advanced Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 265 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Sunday, February 22, 2009 - 12:40 pm:    I was working for the venue. The guys in the band were really nice and approachable. Mother's Finest is/was one of the tightest bands I've ever heard. I often try to interject a funk element into my songs... that inspiration comes from these guys. pauldo Member Username: pauldo Post Number: 97 Registered: 6-2006 Posted on Tuesday, February 24, 2009 - 4:06 pm:    HECK YEAH!!! That kicked serious butt! I need to investigate this group further - thanks for posting. mike1762 Advanced Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 267 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Tuesday, February 24, 2009 - 4:57 pm:    Anybody not familiar with these guys, do yourself a favor and download the entire "Another Mother Further" album. They are the definition of Funk-Rock. dannobasso Senior Member Username: dannobasso Post Number: 964 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Tuesday, February 24, 2009 - 6:51 pm:    Better than The Dan Reed Network? davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 7641 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, February 25, 2009 - 9:45 am:    Danno; I don't think the two groups play the same kind of music. cozmik_cowboy Senior Member Username: cozmik_cowboy Post Number: 420 Registered: 10-2006 Posted on Wednesday, February 25, 2009 - 2:46 pm:    I'd never heard of Mother's Finest before I started hanging out here. Thanks for turning me on to them, guys; they're good, maybe even great. But I'm sorry, Mike, there's only one definition of funk-rock!

Mother's Finest never quite broke out as a national act. They were a little "too rock" for the funk crowd and a little "too funk" for the rock crowd. But I loved the way they weaved those 2 styles together.
