Tbh I dont feel like it's that much different than pushing up an artist poll after he or she passed

Jaki was important to music, Clyde was important to humanity

only two great drummers have died?

my gateway into listening to james brown was hearing "stone to the bone" and thinking this is just like can.

THere are a few tracks on the Funk Power set from the 1970 recordings that really do sound like a crossover with Can.

I loved them both, may they RIP. The pulse was alive within each of these people. Now it lives in everyone who was inspired by them, which is a whole lot of drummers.

― weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Monday, 20 February 2017 15:10 (nine years ago)

Yeah. I have some regrets about turning this into a poll, with the whole post-mortem horserace aspect feeling really weird to me now

― jorts l0chinski (Drugs A. Money), Monday, 20 February 2017 19:47 (nine years ago)

So there are ripercussions?
