Artists and friends have been paying tribute to Amp Fiddler, the highly respected and influential Detroit funk musician who died earlier this week at the age of 65. He had been suffering from cancer.
Fiddler spent the early part of his career playing keyboards with George Clinton, a gig that led to him collaborating with Prince on the song We Can Funk. He featured on Would I Lie To You?, Charles & Eddie’s global hit, and Maxwell’s Urban Hang Suite, the neo-soul star’s classic debut album.
