He even insisted to make a picture of this. On the second picture you see Michael Clip Payne, one of the most important P-Funk vocalists. He is responsible for the incredible vocals on Saxify's first track, Susie Saxophone. In this picture on the left there's Greg Thomas, the saxophonist of Parliament Funkadelic. I am lucky to say that we are friends for about 10 years now.Right photo: It was a suprise so see him because this gentleman is either hiding in the studio writing and producing all the time or touring with his own band but this year he's touring with George: Amp Fiddler. This is Garrett Shider, son of Garry Starchild Shider, who (co-)wrote and recorded so many p-funk tracks. Since the passing of his dad, Garrett is one of the guitar players of the band. Pictured in the left photo: Robert Glass, Michael Clip Payne, Kenny Schneidman (friend of Clip), Laura Fuchs. Robert, Clip and Laura have one thing in common: they are all vocalists on Saxify.. On the right photo you see Garrett, me and p-funk backing vocalist Brandi Scott striking a pose. Ain't no party like a p-funk party 'cause the p-funk party don't stop! Eventually it stopped last night because the bus came and they had to travel to England...
