buddy miles [former drummer of Band of Gypsies]passed on Tuesday.?

Question

another great loss to the music world.

Answer 1

WOW!...NEWS TO ME!...he was fanatastic!....drummer as well as singer (soulfull was not EVEN the word to describe both chops!)...I remember hearing a track of his called, 'Last Chance for Love'...from the album More Miles Per Gallon...one of the sweetest (and hardest to find) tracks around (i am STILL searching)...sublime...



he had a difficult time, emotionally, with the breakup of BOG, not to mention Jimi's death...



BAND OF GYPSIES, by the way, ONE OF THE TIGHTEST TRIO EVER!.......jimi never sounded more grounded/solid!



gotta have a toast to Buddy tonight...thank you for bringing this up!



wow...

Answer 2

Electric Flag, Buddy Miles Express, Band of Gypsies. He got around and was a part of some earth shaking music. Check out the site wolfgangsvault for some old time bands. The concert noted below is from 1968.

Answer 3

Great drummer (much better than Mitch Mitchell, in my opinion). Perhaps a moment of silence while "Machine Gun" is played over the airwaves?

Answer 4

He deserves more than that. He deserves apologies from people who used to beat the heck out of him, because he was the wrong color.



"Them Changes" lyrics have a purpose.

Answer 5

Did you know he was the voice of the singing California Raisins?

Only 60 - Too young to go!

Answer 6

"Expressway To Yer Skull"...Electric Flag and Jimi and Carlos in Hawaii..apparently a kind-hearted man..RIP.

Oh well, another soul gone to the great gig in the sky and YES he does!
