@HyperDose - totally agree on George Clinton - who is where I got my name "Billy Jam" name from back in the mid 80's upon first interviewing him - he is my hero. - Coincidentally several weeks ago when BAS-One was my co-host I was saying how he is a treasure and that he does not do shows anymore -then later that night saw where he did (From NJ) a Zoom live show online
