(1/3) In Memoriam: Bassist, singer, songwriter, and producer William “Billy Bass” Nelson, Jr. was a founding member of 1997 Inductees Parliament-Funkadelic – he even came up with the name “Funkadelic” – and played a key role in shaping the band's signature sound.

A trio of brothers left Motown, started their own label, and went on to win a Grammy for Best R&B Performance with this 1969 song. Can you name the three brothers after we discuss the fun clothing?

"Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)" by Sly and the Family Stone was released as a single on this day in 1969.

[Sam Cooke @OfficialSCooke]

On this day in 1964, the world lost one of its greatest voices; the man who shaped the sound of a generation and paved the way for countless artists who followed.

Though he’s gone, Sam’s music continues to inspire, uplift, and remind us that art has the power to move the world forward.🕊️

[Los Lobos @LosLobosBand]

We want to express our deepest condolences to the family of our dear friend & brother Raul Malo. One of the finest voices we’ve ever heard, it was impossible to have anything but a great time in his presence. We will treasure the time we got to spend & we will miss him terribly.
