"Lets do that funky break" ..Bernard Edwards

[Highfox]

I love watching and listening to any footage of Ber..nard.
Not sure if this has been posted before? Here's Bernard showing John Taylor how to break it down in one of the Powerstation songs.
No idea if John played the part on the recording! Interesting to see Bernards picking [i]technique[/i] without using a pick

Even though you always knew it was a pick...recall learning that with fingers

Good stuff. Just finished the Nile Rodgers book which is a great insight into the world these guys lived in. Bernards grooves are eternal. He was a "proper" bass player.
