@@CP-tb4fl yes……Sanford Jeffery Daniel……one of the best drummers I’ve seen….not just saying that…he WAS good and best of all, he loved the music. Do I know you?
@@CP-tb4fl Why, how very kind of you to take the time to say. I think what made Pepe a talent was the passion he brought to his music….he was constantly on search for different drummers, always looking to expand his craft. At the time of his death, he was beginning to look at Billy Cobham. He said he felt he had gone as far as he could with just playing rock, and this guy amazed him. He was constantly trying to improve his skills. Thank you again for your kind words, and giving me a chance to talk about him….he is missed.
@@CP-tb4fl do you still play? To make his efforts on drums all the more extraordinary…Pepe suffered from acute asthma…in fact, that is what killed him. It was the breathing situation that made him quit MF, unfortunately. The fact that he had that stamina while trying to breathe, well, he very WAS special.
Have loved this band since 1977 when I saw them in concert, we just saw them at the HickoryNewton NC speedway for Rockfest 2 and after all these years still AWESOME, still one if my favorite rock/funk bands. True legends of talent . I’ve seen them in several cities and always attend when they’re within 3 hours .
Wyzard was cool guy. He worked out in the Gym near my parents house when I was a teenager. He often jogged in our neighborhood in Dunwoody and when we hollered out, he'd wave. After that when he jogged through and around, he'd wave and we'd wave back and left him alone. Man, I wanted his autograph so bad, I was a Bass player too and here was one of my hero's right there going by my driveway, but I didn't want to bother him, he just wanted his peace you know, and we respected that. The way he played, that style was something new to us white boys and it was like "how does he get that sound?" So we'd experiment.
@@Wooley689 I know Wyz, and he would have loved to sign an autograph for you….and, if you told him you played bass also….thatvwould have been a joy for both of you. Wyzard is a great guy,
.. why that abrupt cut off?! this band reminds me of (later on) Brooklyn, NY band Brooklyn Funk Essentials who also have lots of dates (stayed there years) in EU.. back here currently.
If I had said that title I’d get my head kicked in. But hip hop is full of violence,homophobia,transphobia,sexism,misogyny and gun violence,rape and abuse references.
This song/band ISN’T hip hop, they’re a straight up R&R band from the 70’s. This song was written and recorded as a reply to “critics” and artists of that time saying that black bands had no place in R&R and should stick to R&B or disco.
@@malcolmr3MF was and still is the best funk rock band that ever existed. I'm from Brazil and a fan since 1976. I'm an old guy..66 years old..and I still love good music from the 70s.
why would u say a word that has a historic connotation against an entire group of people? and this a critic to black singers being excluded out of the R&R industry although they created it.
You must be a white dude who want to say the N Word so bad, and why are you acting like rappers do not get criticize (and in some places banned) for all of the things you are talking about? Stop it!
Straight up jam...damn, they still killin' it to this day...✨🤙🏼✨🔥✨
This band rocked East Carolina University in the 1970's and 80's routinely. Saw them many times with Nantucket at the Attic in Greenville, NC!!
Thank you for doing this…I hadn’t seen my husband play drums in a long time…he died in the late 70s. Again… THANK YOU!!!!

@@Crone369 I would have really enjoyed that, I would have been walking on air for sure.
Greatness
Post the whole video

YES they can.......

FB being hypocritical
Lots of radio play I bet.
Aerosmith booted them off the tour. Mother's Finest opening. The fans wanted more and booed Aerosmith when they came out. It happened several times.
