Phillipe Wynn was one of the greatest R&B singers EVER...! Sad but appropriate that he died on stage doing what he loved. Great hearing the late great Ray Davis holding down the bottom. This is classic Oldskoolfunk...and so am I...!
Sid Sidney No they weren’t, he was great but not “the “ only voice. Check out the songs that Bobby Smith led, his was the true irreplaceable voice. Phillippe just got the big head and quit. But later he admitted that he never should have left the Spinners.
@@craigwilliams3312GC Cameron, too. Spinners had sever leads, Bobby tol among them. Bobby Smith's life in Houston was presented in movie " Jason's Lyric".
I first saw the Spinners in 1974 at a concert in in Akron Ohio. I was a fan of theirs every since. By far, Phillip Wynne was & still is the greatest ad-libber I've ever seen in my life.
Whoever recorded this & posted, I thank you. I didn’t see Philippe after he went solo & I surely would have supported him. This song & the funky “Knee Deep” I would have paid anything to hear & see. All of the artists on this great video that are no longer here, RIP. The way this world is going, we’ll see you soon.
I was there....The Summit Houston, Texas (1984) Jessica, Wynne, Hampton, Frantangelo and Garry Shider were incredible....I wish they had the whole show....It is one for the ages....
Phillips Wynn’s was among the greatest tenors ever, and his showmanship was incredible. Died in Oakland the Mecca of California while performing. The song Sadie is an absolute Classic. Thx for the Video
Thanks for letting the fans know this. I always wonder about Keep Your Head to the Sky. It seems that Phillip Bailey was not hitting those high notes by himself.
Best of THE BEST truly a diamond,best vocalist ever to me,so much heart and showmanship and funky.GOD HAS HIM NOW!Peace and love Mr Wynne.forever....Much respect....
The brother was the most memorable voice of the Spinners.. He’d walk out and got the crowd into the song much like church.. His voice just soars to the sky.. He gave it every time.. Rest In Peace Phillip Wynn .. LB October 2021
Philippe Wynne is one of the members of the group, Spinners. Everyone, please be sure to vote for the Spinners DAILY starting NOW through FRIDAY, APRIL 28TH so that they get inducted into this year's 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
We use to see the Spinners back in the 70’s at the old Latin Casino in Cherry Hill, New Jersey , when they use to serve hot food called supper clubs .. Sister Sledge would open up the show for them. Damn what a show !!!
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU TALKING ABOUT, UNCLE JAM,you better listen to that cut before you talk about he didn't belong here,So much talent ,UNCLE George had everyone that was truly of value....period. dot dot dot....bootsy,Glen G. Phillipe W.I could go on and on please don't make me. George Clinton is a straight Genius The Mastermixer of funkythings to listen to .50 yrs.this still sounds so funky.
This concert was here in Houston, Texas @ The Summit. This is my favorite version. (Not Just Knee Deep Version) "I got ants in my pants and I need to dance". 😉
Those few years or months with p funk probably took it toll on Mr. Wynne. I'm sure the spinners partied but I doubt they did what P funk did and not as hard as P funk either. But George was a genius in bringing him in for this big hit
Aw damn no hes not underrated didn't u hear his voice on a ton of hits didn't the spinners just get inducted to Rock and roll hall fame?? So how in the hell is he underrated such a dumb comment
Remember how he sang Mighty Love and they couldnt get him off that stage..? We would just cry laughing when we were kids, becayse they would try to wrap ot up but he was feeling it and adlibbing and you couldn't stop him..he was so passionate..theres not many like him
Tremendous vocals, blow man,blow .you are so talented and blessed. I Am a sucker for beautiful vocals, Just drawn in.....love it.What a mighty GOD we serve...
I knew Phillipe's style reminded me of someone, but I could just not put it together? One day I'm listening to Sirius/XM radio, and I heard Summertime, by Billy Stewart, and bingo, there it is!!!
@Rob Oliver George did the vocals on the original record tho. Garry would sometimes do those same lead vocals in shows tho. sometimes both he and George were the co-vocalists.
Back when this song hit i was about 8. I actually thought it George Clinton singing Philippe' Wynne's part. I used to be like damn Uncle George is jammin! But it was ol boy Philippe' Wynne from the Spinners the whole time. LOL😁! L8TR👊! KEEP THE FUNK ALIVE 🤘.
What a horrible shame that we no longer hear such beautiful voices from the likes of Phillipe Wynne and Bobby Smith, and songs like his anymore, all replaced by absolute, purely evil filth.
This song always remind me of grandma she always open her house and heart to people in need. We don't have a lot of love like that these days. But I follow grandma loving ways and give to people in need. Thank you grandma!
Phillipe Wynne ..... I wish he hadn'teft tbe Spinners. He was the greatest thing to happen to the Spinners. Remember "Ghetto Child" and We Belong Together .
Success often goes to our head. Lots of people blowing smoke up his ass to the point he demanded the name be changed to Philippé Wynne and the Spinners, and they said no (rightfully so), and he quit. Aside from Philippé's fantastic talent for ad-libbing, Bobby Smith's voice was just as beautiful as his -- almost indistinguishable at times. Don't get me wrong, I love Philippé's voice above Bobby's, but The Spinners were a damn fine band before Philippé' joined, and it was just plain egomaniacal of him to demand the name be changed.
Never has been a more underrated singer as great as Phillipe Wynn. Greatest adlibber there has ever been!!! But peep how versatile the PFUNK ALLSTARS are at backing him!!! Talent just cannot be denied. Period!
I always thought Phillipe with P-Funk was a weird mix. Phillipe being a smooth tuxedo and suit wearing vocalist with the complete beautiful madness that was P-Funk...but we damn sure got an all-time classic out of it.
This one was in Houston but I saw this tour at the Apollo Theater in Harlem, NYC FANTASTIC! Thanks for Posting Zoltan! One of the Cats was walking on stage with a sign: THIS IS A BLACK OPERA!
@ Melvin Martin, that's the Best part of the shows back then the Background Dancers were Out of this world! I would go just to watch them learn the steps, and hit the Dancefloor.

Oldskool Funk this man never got the respect he deserves!
bryant farrell you’re damn right, Phillipe Wynn should have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame long ago!
Vincent Robinson absolutely! The spinners period! The Rock and Roll HOF just suck!
I wish he never left the spinners
@@falanajerido875 I know

Tyrone norfleet Norfleet yes he was
Yes Indeed he was!
I totally agree.

I'm from Akron and I remember listening to the spinners.
I saw them in Dayton that same year lol
Akron cat here as well 🙋🏾♂️
I agree
This shit is dope! Rip Phillipe, Jessica Cleaves, Gary Shider, Bernie Worrell, Mahlia Franklin, Benita Woods, Eddie Hazel!
Don't forget Junie Morrison aka J.S. Theracon, the mastermind of many P-Funk classics.
You just named some music greats!
What a collection of talent?
And Ray Davis.

I love the background vocals on Sadie. Jessica hitting those high notes and Ray Davis's bass voice.
Phillipe Wynne was born to be on that stage! He knows how to get to the soul of the crowd💯💯💯
Yes!
May he rest in peace to all the brothers and Soldiers deceased amen. God bless P funk.
Amen
💯😁
Died on stage, doing what he loved. Traumatic for the audience maybe, but he was in his element.
How i adored his voice...he was super special
My aunt loved Mr. Wynne she cried like a baby when he died
me toooo
This man could sing anything period!
He could turn the items on a menu into a song and make it sound good. Awesome talent.😍
What a beautiful voice, I loved me some Wynne
Can we give it up 4 Gary Shider for singing His Lead Part as well as Georges part on Knee-deep before Phipplipe. Came too finish the song! Facts
Two legends of the game.
I love song as a little girl that I didn't know it was Phillipe doing my favorite verse 🎉🎉💎🦂😉💎👌🏼🙋🏻♀️💯‼️⛄🍷💫😇😇👌🏼

Faked his death
@@janeharrison7145Wow . This is the first time I'm hearing that. Anymore info ?
Every time I hear this song I am moved to tears; May you journey well brother Wynne in the land of the ancestor's.
likewise.
YES. Soul music.
Nobody Sounds Like This Man.....
This man right here!.....taking you to church! RIP Mr. Wynne!
Master of the Adlib, Phillipe Soul Wynne. With the Angelic voice of Jessica Cleaves, & subterranean bass voice Sting Ray Davis.

Keep your head to the sky high note sister. RIP
Waykers 13 didn’t know that
Thanks for letting the fans know this. I always wonder about Keep Your Head to the Sky. It seems that Phillip Bailey was not hitting those high notes by himself.
Philippe was with the funk before he got with Funkadelic. He was with Bootsy with the pacesetters, then he was with the Spinners.
And with the JBs
James Brown's band
@@navynightranger6517. Bbn. L b 1 q1 wq1 mmlgo
Yeah but this era of the Funk mob was a lot different than the early Pacesetters. He couldn't hang.
@@michaelwashington5261 ???
2 Cincinnati Legends!
So much to love about Funkadelic....but Gary Shider will always be the heart and soul for me💜
Philippe Wynn was an amazing, incredible talent. What an awesome singer! 🔥
He rocked it on Knee deep. Damn what a groove :-)

Sometimes it seem so funny that no money can turn your life around Rest in peace to all the brothers and Soldiers deceased, peace.
Not just knee deep was one of the toughest jams I have ever heard y'all.
Check out the accapella version
Michael Hampton slayed it!
When black music was at its best.. Or rather when music was at its best period... I don't what we got 2day
I really want to sing for George as a kid before MOGO played his music on the radio.
Philippe Soul Wynne is one of the greatest singers/entertainers of all time!!! He was before my time; I recognize his brilliance.
The singers favorite singer
“Could this be me? Immersed in funk so deep?”
Absolutely
Anybody who would thumbs down to this..simply don't understand.
Props to the drummer on this one

The Beverly Theatre version is AMAZING
Phillipe Wynne at his singing and dancing peak. Travel the spaceways...Baba.
His late son was also a treasure...
One of my favorite singers period!! God bless you mr wynn!!!
PHILIPPE!! OMG!!!! Legend! They can't sing like this no more!!!!
Those few years or months with p funk probably took it toll on Mr. Wynne. I'm sure the spinners partied but I doubt they did what P funk did and not as hard as P funk either. But George was a genius in bringing him in for this big hit
When Mr. Wynne heard it,he said he had to be on it.
This brother so underrated! As well as the spinners! I love Phillepe!
Aw damn no hes not underrated didn't u hear his voice on a ton of hits didn't the spinners just get inducted to Rock and roll hall fame?? So how in the hell is he underrated such a dumb comment
To see Philippe Wynne actually on stage . . . fantastic, I will appreciate it!
The P-Funk Horns sounds so good Phillipee Wynne as well times are gone..
The perfect entertainer ❤
That drummer is on it!!! And Bootsy Collins played on the recording!!! I had no idea!!!
Bootsy also on Flash Light playing drums
Very simply the voice of soul. Gone forever.
It really sucks he's gone. Amazing singer
Thanks for the upload. This is such a gem for me! ❤ Phillipe and Parliament Funkadelic.

I wish he never left the spinners
This could not be scripted, everyone vibing off each other. (Sweetest blend).
Remember how he sang Mighty Love and they couldnt get him off that stage..?
We would just cry laughing when we were kids, becayse they would try to wrap ot up but he was feeling it and adlibbing and you couldn't stop him..he was so passionate..theres not many like him

Great show, I was there
What a star. He’d have become massive on his own had he been with us longer. Wish he had more time.
"I got ants in my pants and I need to dance" 🎶💃🕺Well go ahead then, dance! The great Philippe Wynne! 💞
That's the one and only Garry Shider on lead vocals on Knee Deep... Brother was very underated cause he was the diaper man but could SANG his ass off!
Rob Oliver Talk that shit! Underrated!
@Rob Oliver George did the vocals on the original record tho. Garry would sometimes do those same lead vocals in shows tho. sometimes both he and George were the co-vocalists.
So beautiful!!! Mr.Wynn!!!
He is the man 👨
Back when this song hit i was about 8. I actually thought it George Clinton singing Philippe' Wynne's part. I used to be like damn Uncle George is jammin! But it was ol boy Philippe' Wynne from the Spinners the whole time. LOL😁! L8TR👊! KEEP THE FUNK ALIVE 🤘.
This takes me back to the Greensboro Coliseum back in 1978. Sing it brotha!
I have a lump in my throat.
My mom was at the concert she Said she had a blast
What a horrible shame that we no longer hear such beautiful voices from the likes of Phillipe Wynne and Bobby Smith, and songs like his anymore, all replaced by absolute, purely evil filth.
This is sho nuff a classic performance here. Miss this old school!
This song always remind me of grandma she always open her house and heart to people in need. We don't have a lot of love like that these days. But I follow grandma loving ways and give to people in need. Thank you grandma!
I saw the Spinners in 1976, my first concert. I was 5. Discovered P-Funk the same year. Yep. 5.
Wow! This Man was Outstanding! Love It! This song means everything to me.
Come on Phillipe!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO OF THE P-FUNK ALL STARS ITS GREAT N FUNKY

Phillipe Wynne was awesome
Wynn’s
Voice is underated
Yes!!! Thank You!!!!! 1Nation4Life!!!!
He can ride a vamp like nobody's business
Glenn Goines was my favorite, But tied with the great Philipe Wynn (Spinners Fame). This is a great live version so true to what the recording.
Gary Shider was vocals was also funky cold!
..........me too.........Glenn Goines was the voice 0f P Funk......Mothership Connection
This drummer…the vamp the band does @22:30 mark; before Philippe comes out is hypnotic… the spooky backing vocals…”Ooooooo”
The genius of the late Tyrone Lampkins one of the baddest to ever sit behind a kit.
Omg you're right...incredible. That skipping kick drum is so dope.
Philippé Wynne DOING HIS PART ON KNEE DEEP.................... JESUS CHRIST!!!! THEY HAVING FUN!!!!!
I love watching Jessica enjoy herself, one of my favorite vocalists besides Donna Summer & Laura Lyro
Still trying to wrap my mind around Phippe Wynn backed by P-Funk.
