No Condition Is Permanent

Pictured: Junie Morrison & friend.

As we got ready to go back into the studio as Funkadelic, we added some new personnel. The most important arrival at that time was Junie Morrison. Junie had been one of the cornerstones of the Ohio Players,.. Junie was one of the main songwriters during that period, responsible for hits like “Funky Worm.” Junie… was known around the music world as a brilliant guy capable of doing almost anything: writing, arranging, playing keyboards, preparing a band for a tour.

Junie was a fascinating person to work with. He could do it all, and if you weren’t careful, he would…Just because you can play all the instruments doesn’t mean that you should… Junie wasn’t the only one in danger of disappearing into the solitary-genius bag, of course. Sly had been like that before him. Prince would be like that after him. Even with them, there was a danger: if you don’t go back to a group environment now and then, you start to lose your juice. With Funkadelic, he put himself back in the group environment, and it started to pay dividends immediately.
