P-Funk guitarist and funk icon Garry “Starchild” Shider left his indelible mark on everything he touched and The Big Ol’ Nasty Getdown is no exception. His trademark guitar and signature vocals can be heard on several of the tracks on the band’s upcoming CD Volume 1. Many of these songs were some of the last recorded before Garry’s untimely passing a year ago.
In honor of Garry’s memory The Big Ol’ Nasty Getdown is giving a free download of “It’s So Hard To Go,” available by clicking on http://tinyurl.com/ItsSoHardToGo. This particular song features an all-star Funk choir led by Garry and featuring George Clinton, Belita Woods, Sidney Barnes, Kendra Foster, Laura Reed, and Rev. Desmond D’Angelo, among others. The song will be available from Tuesday, June 14 to Tuesday, June 21.
“Garry was a mentor both musically and personally,” said The Big Ol’ Nasty Getdown founder John Heintz. ”I wish he was here to see the completed album, but his magic lives on in these recordings. It’s an honor for me to share the track ‘It’s So Hard To Go’ with fans both new and old as a celebration of this great man and dear friend.”
