"Spanky" (guitarist on Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Tony Toni Tone, etc albums)

Also I think on Raphael Saadiq's solo stuff. I have no idea what his real name is, and google isn't much help.

― you can email me if you wish to challenge the truth (nickalicious), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 14:41 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, Spanky used to be in a group called "Our Gang".

― Rev. PappaWheelie (PappaWheelie 2), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 15:13 (nineteen years ago)

Really? I will soooo check that out, he is one of my favorite guitarists.

just don't mistakenly buy a spanky & our gang album. although there are probably lots of hired guns on "sunday will never be the same". what a song!

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 15:25 (nineteen years ago)

conjunction junction dude produced most of spanky & our gang's cool 60's stuff. he was a session cat. bob dorough.

― scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 15:27 (nineteen years ago)

I recent years, he used to do some kind of jazz brunch for a long time somewhere, I think.

Kenny Aronoff!
Kenny Buttrey!

Good choices, but we forgot about (on the other side of the rhythm section)
Kenny Aaronson!

― The Player In The Redd Cap (Two-Headed Doge) (Ken L), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 16:52 (nineteen years ago)

I always imagined that being a session player would be a really cool job.

― Sundar (sundar), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 20:43 (nineteen years ago)

The Iridium, looks like.

1650 Broadway, the real Brill Building.

He never will forget at all
The day he played at the Albert Hall.
A million sessions ago it seems.
He is a session man,
A chord progression,
A top musician.

― The Player In The Redd Cap (Two-Headed Doge) (Ken L), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 20:48 (nineteen years ago)

the best thing about that song is the four-syllable pronunciations of "progression" and "musician."

― fact checking cuz (fcc), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 20:54 (nineteen years ago)

Yes!

― The Player In The Redd Cap (Two-Headed Doge) (Ken L), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 20:55 (nineteen years ago)

In fact, it really should be written out
a chord progress-i-an
A top music-i-an

― The Player In The Redd Cap (Two-Headed Doge) (Ken L), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 20:58 (nineteen years ago)

Because, you see, he is not a chord progression himself, rather a master of chord progressions, a chord "progressian."

― The Player In The Redd Cap (Two-Headed Doge) (Ken L), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 20:59 (nineteen years ago)

damn, i never thought of it that way. that makes total sense!!! you are a top sense-i-an, mr. redd capp!

― fact checking cuz (fcc), Wednesday, 5 July 2006 21:01 (nineteen years ago)
