The radio hosts agreed that this rendition was their favorite! Way to go guys! FISHBONE is Red Hottttttt.

      According to De La Soul, record companies try to get three good albums out of an artist, then do their best to sabotage their future for failure. Add the fact that Fishbone's music is naturally a square peg in a round hole. Bottom line... recording companies look out for themselves and will screw over the artist at any chance.

      @@dwaynerichardson5380 There's also another reason and it lies with the black community themselves. Over the last 30 years, Hip Hop has been the dominant music form in the black community and among kids growing up, it's simply NOT DONE to go anywhere near a guitar.
      Why do you think Little Wayne does that "Guitar Solo" shtick of his? Certainly not because of love for the instrument. People like Tosin Abasi, Robert Randolph and Gary Clarke Jr. are modern day black guitarists but if you went up to a group of black teenagers, and asked them who they are they wouldn't know but ask them about Tyler the Creator and Drake, they would because Hip Hop is all they know.
      So black rock bands such as 24/7 Spyz, Bad Brains, Fishbone and Living Colour are deliberately overlooked because of that.
      Edit: I should have Mentioned DuG Pinnick of Kings' X here. He could have been huge if he had been a modern day artist. Because he embodies everything that today's society keeps talking about:
      - He's a badass musician and singer
      - He's gay
      - He's black
      But nobody knows who he is.

    I got to see Fishbone on their first tour in 1986 or 87. I don't remember when. Angelo Moore was dancing next to me during the opening band. I started talking to him. He's super cool. Very nice and respectful of what the opening band was trying to do. Then, they came on and blew the house away. So talented. They were the tightest band I've ever heard -- equal to professional symphonies.

I left saying it was one of the greatest live shows I had ever seen. These guys are so underrated.

    Alice in Chains and Fishbone have quite the history together. They both headlined Lollapalooza in 1993. Chris Dowd (Fishbone Keys/Vocals) was in Jerry Cantrell's solo band when he toured in the late '90s. Angelo (Fishbone vocals) and Norwood (Fishbone bass) both played on Jerry's solo record, Boggy Depot. In the early days of Alice in Chains, Jerry would often say that he hated going on after Fishbone because they set the bar too damn high.

    I practically grew up on Alice in Chains--at least through high school and undergrad.

Anyway, holy cow! every time I listen to freaking Fishbone of all groups cover Them Bones.... Blow away! Deep funk meets the grungiest of all grunge and it KILLS.
