News Legendary Drummer Clyde Stubblefield Suffers Tough Break
Posted by Dave Segal on Sat, Jun 20, 2009 at 2:51 PM
Very sad news: 66-year-old Clyde Stubblefield, the drummer who played on several James Brown classics, including "Cold Sweat," "There Was a Time," and one of the most sampled tracks ever, the 1970 single “Funky Drummer,” is now on dialysis until he can get a kidney transplant.

Sad news. I saw Clyde Stubblefield play about ten years ago in Madison, Wisconsin and it was a show I still think about often. Dude still creates a deep cut to play in and about. Legendary.
