RIBS TPTD: Bonus Hours - Buddy Miles-RIP

Funk/Rock drummer Buddy Miles passed away last week on Tuesday, February 26th, 2008. Best known for his work/collaboration with Jimi Hendrix as a member of the Band of Gypsys, Buddy (as I only found out while reading his obituary) was also the lead vocalist in the 1987 California Raisins ad campaign created by the California Raisin Advisory Board.

While I will admit that I am no expert on his music, I have always been a big fan of what many consider to be his signature song: “Them Changes”. Whether it was Rock, Funk, Blues, RnB or Soul, Buddy was truly a gifted musician, songwriter and bandleader.

So… in remembrance, one last time “let’s give the drummer some” as we present to you:

• Buddy Miles
