In a recent interview on AV Club, George Clinton (not Bill) talks about all kinds of funky stuff, including Tool: AVC: Who do you think will carry on the torch of funk? GC: There’re no young bands. Most of us have been around a while, but most of the hip-hop and rappers have bands now that are really pretty funky. Eminem, even though we’ve known him for years, when he… Read More »George Clinton Loves Tool?
