Some of you may not know who Bernie Worrell is. He was a lynchpin of Parliament Funkadelic and after that he collaborated with a lot of other musicians—like Talking Heads (that’s Bernie in Stop Making Sense), as well as some of my own projects like Catherine Wheel, the score for a Twyla Tharp dance theater project. The list is long.
Bernie has been sick recently, and due to the embarrassing shape of the U.S. health system, he needs help with his bills. A group of friends and collaborators came out to help last night with a benefit show at Webster Hall here in NYC.
As my own contribution, I remixed of a song that Bernie and I co-wrote (with some others) called “How Does the Brain Wave?”. Jaime Liddell did a remix of the song as well—his is wonderful and much more adventurous than mine.
