I met him probably around 2000 as the bass player of Maceo Parker. What I didn’t know by then is that he’s one of the important bass players of Parliament Funkadelic and other George Clinton related projects like Brides of Funkenstein, Parlet, Fred Wesley, Bernie Worrell, P-Funk Allstars etc…. thanks to Discogs and other sources.
Baltimore based Skeet joined Parliament Funkadelic in 1977. Vocalist Gary “Mudbone” Cooper, also from Baltimore and working for quite a while with P-Funk already, introduced and brought him to George Clinton. That’s where he also met Maceo Parker. Skeet had played in a local band called Uncle Remus before, together with drummer Dennis Chambers and saxophone player Greg Thomas who joined P-Funk later. All would become regular members of the band until at least mid-late 80’s.
He plays bass on many recordings (Check Discogs). A great old live recording together with Dennis Chambers is: P-Funk Allstars “Live at the Beverly Theater In Hollywood”. Nowadays, Skeet's still touring around the world with Maceo Parker…
