Maceo Parker keeps it funky
Maceo Parker has spent five decades blasting his alto saxophone for funk masters James Brown, George Clinton and Prince.
[...] not content with his role as one of music’s most famous sidemen, the 72-year-old North Carolina native has also been turning out his own fresh and funky work since 1970, using lessons he learned from the masters.
“People who have the ability to create good music and good songs can hear and know to listen to those inner messages when they come,” he says.
