I grew up on Al Green and saw him live. Love Al Green always! To me Gary Shider, not to mention Glen Goins, are on a higher musical and vocal level that Al.. Try wrapping Al Green and Minnie Ripperton into one singer and you approach the beauty of Gary's singing. Sometimes the soulful beauty of his singing is unearthly! Heavenly.

Believe it or not, I hear a little Al Green in Gary's Voice.

@1curbfeeler I asked Gary about Al Green one time. He just smiled at me. What you will hear is Al Green, R. Eyes Lee and his unique style all in one. His best attribute was his live candor on stage that is what smokes. Not to mention the guitar playing.

It's been a minute since I've felt this type of pain. I'm putting it out here now. EVERY TIME P-funk rolled into Houston, TX back in the 70's, this kid was always on the front row with my other classmates who just knew for sure we were going to join up with them when we became older. We always use to think Houston was the testing ground for them. I didn't get to become a member, but trust - I can funk with the best of 'em. Mr. Shider thank you for adding to the soundtrack of my life. RIP.

[RobinTimmers]

Hope he is jamming with Eddie Hazel, Jimi, Miles, Bob and all those other funkateers up there...

Thanx for your bootyful funk Gary...

[mishoedrew]
