The guy was my early introduction to funk playing... Loved his playing with Tower of Power.

May his memory be eternal.
Imagine him jamming with Peart and Jimi.

Sorry to hear that news--I remember he had some pretty severe health issues. It was kind of a big deal for meto see/hear him perform a few years back with TOP at a local winery.

RIP FRP

Damn. Dude had mad skills.

Here he is in a 1993 video tutorial with the guys, throwing down on "Squib Cakes" and describing his technique.

Here's an interview with a rep from TC, talking about his amp choices, and more elaborating on his "What Is Hip?" groove.
