NOTE: You can see the lastest comments for all HOTG posts and/or set up a feed for them QUOTES OF NOTE: 'New Orleans is of such key importance to American music because historical factors combined to make it the strongest center of African musical practice in the United States, and, cliches aside, that practice really did travel up the Mississippi and did spread overland.' - Ned Sublette, from Cuba And Its Music 'I heard a group called Huey Smith & the Clowns, out of New Orleans.

Now this is where funk was really created! That's where funk originated. I couldn't understand how to do it, so this drummer from Huey Smith's band [Hungry Williams] showed me how to play [it].'

- Clayton Fillyau, drummer for Etta James and James Brown, on the origins of the 'James Brown Beat', in The Great Drummers Of R&B, Funk & Soul, interviewed by Jim Payne. 'A lot of those New Orleans drummers would come through, and I got a lot of stuff from those guys.Tenoo [Coleman] was.as funky as any of them. I learned some of that funk by listening to Tenoo.' - John 'Jabo'Starks, drummer for Bobby Bland and James Brown, to Jim Payne as above. 'At the risk of sounding egotistical, a lot of the broken up stuff that these guys are playing now stems from the stuff that I had started doing.'

- Earl Palmer, on his early days drumming with Dave Bartholomew's band, to Jim Payne, as above. 'With funk, it's almost more what you don't play than what you do play. I like those long silences between riffs, I like the empty spaces. Those empty spaces, when you stop and let the groove wash all over you, make the difference between fake funk and real funk.' -Art Neville in The Brothers Neville 'Thank the good Lord for the funk musicians.'
