- Join us in this intriguing interview with Bernie Worrell. A piano prodigy since the very young age of three, he performed with the Washington Symphony Orchestra at just ten. His musical journey has taken him virtually everywhere: musical director for Maxine Brown, a member of George Clinton's Parliament/Funkadelic, as well as Talking Heads and various projects with Keith Richards, Bootsy's New Rubber Band, the Pretenders, Deee-Lite, and Jack Bruce (Cream). He remains one the most sampled musicians of all time (Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, DMX, Digital Underground, De La Soul, etc., etc.!
R.I.P. Bernie Worrell. Thank you for your wonderful world of music.
RIP bernie a true musical genius and its criminal he ended up broke after all the hits he helped create
Bernie Itruly thank the Creator for giving you life , you have increased my joy for being able to hear. Keep on creating ...
I've never seen Bernie speak or be interviewed before.. Very cool guy seemed very down to earth.. RIP, sir!
Goodbye sweet genius! May the funk be with you
givin' it up to the higher power
Excellent interview. Bernie was a beautiful musician and an humble,intelligent man.
Bernie was a personal friend of mine...we'd hang at my house and shoot the shit....I'm just a normal everyday kind of guy and so was Bernie. He NEVER talked about himself and believed in his "Higher Power"....Bernie you will be missed my friend....I can't call you anymore But I will see you again
Yes, he was very humble at a show where I met him backstage, he smiled that beautiful smile. Shy in fact, among all the band members, they were all super-star glamorous in contrast. Bernie, I'll never forget what a gentleman you were. Thank you for the music.
Bernie was A Musical Genius! RIH♡
I've never sample Bernie worrell tracks I actually learn he's Style of playing
I feel such warmth from him. He's been the voice behind so much music yet somehow he's stayed out of the limelight. Much love for Bernie!!
YEP-YEP! MISSING THE HUMAN TOUCH.
NOTHING LIKE THE FUNK THE WHOLE FUNK
AWAY OF LIFE!
Bernie was an absolute genius and was cruelly uncredited for the compositions that he wrote!!!
Plenty of compositions he wrote in the P-Funk camp, but the two that stick out to me that GC didn't write and stomped his name on it were...Tales Of Kidd Funkadelic and Atmosphere. Those two pieces pushed Funkadelic/Parliament into the spaces that left their musicianship untouchable
READ THE SONG CREDITS ALL THE TIME HIS NAME WAS ALWAYS ON THE WRITER OF MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE ALBUMS
Miss you bernie. Love 💕 you always.
Dope ass hat rip the coolest key man ever

Hey Bernie. I want to know how you guy came up with Sir Nose D'Voidoffunk? What was the process, who did what, is that a guy or a girl doing the Sir Nose part? How long did it take?
I do know a pitch shifter, flanger and delay was used, but who's idea was it? I'm curious about the strangest song in funk history.
That's non other than Dr Funkenstein George Clinton himself doing sir 👃 nose I shall return star child and I will dance flashlight there'll never be another song like ours flashlight flashlight hit it Bernie neon lights flashlight to help us find the funk !
Flash light
There will never be another Maestro like Bernie ☺️
wow
Truly a instrumental, talented genius whom I enjoyed listening to since the seventies. This man is a joy to listen to no matter who he plays for or with. When I listen to a song that he is playing, I tune out the other instruments and close my eyes just to hear his keys talk to me and put me back in the past when I was hanging with the motorcycle clubs. He was and is a golden child ever to grace this planet, I am a female and I love you always, blessings to this "Genius"!
The GREAT Bernie Worrell.
VERY HUMBLE TO BE SUCH A GREAT ARTIST RIP👍
He made so many of us dance and have fun but this interview WOW Bernie much respect for you, his health is taking its told on him GOD bless the Worrell family !
Great interview!
Bernie is my main inspiration!A true legend!
The man behind the man staying up front man.
Woot Humphrey's Mcgee! I didn't know he played with them
What's incredible they had 7 straight years of dominance... just before Rick James, Michael Jackson and Prince broke out..
P-Funk was the dominance band before the 3 big superstar exploded. People waited for P-Funk's songs so they could run on the floor to dance.
They were must see TV... with Mothership Space tour that broke all records.
I so happy, we grew up during the greatest era of music to see vocalists groups, bands and mega solo superstars one after the other.
Among my favorite eras are E, W & F, P-Funk, Cameo and Dazz Band, among others.
And, my second were the vocalist era Spinners, Dramatics, Four Tops and then Temptations etc.
great interview!
One word... HUMBLE.. RIP BERNIE
When non oldschool people hear his P-Funk music today. They think of g-funk dr.dre. Hear that Andre? If you didnt break him off, it would be good on the heart and soul if you did.so. im just saying.
I hope his family are getting some of the payback that Bernie should have gotten long, long ago. You know who you are. If you can't do it, then get your people to. #PaypackBernieWorrell.
(Yeah, I know. But better late than never.)
I saw Bernie and Bootsy in Toronto in 2012 I think it was, best show I seen ever!!!!
Bernie Worrell great Legendary Musician!!
I’m just learning about your greatest!!
But grew up on your music with Parliament Funkadelic album!!🎹🙏🏽 Thank You!!🎶🎶
google singer Maxine Brown live.. there is a great video of him in 68' playing piano with her. .it's a classic ( oh not my baby ..live 1968)
Please tell me what illness was he living with.
Bernie please do a kidd funkadelic part 2
I'm a funkateer, thank you Bernie!
My Plainfield NJ brethran!
When bernie was at the music conservatory school in boston, best beknown he was the ghost director behind musicians at pops classical theater which was basically just across the street. He had the whole boston rocking P-FUNK at franklin park concerts back in early 70's. That was the first time i witnessed a cop busting someone in the head with a billy club. Unfortunately it was my p-funk fiend uncle that was the family stereo technician for the family.
Funk u.f.o. Forever Bernie !
this is the man behind the greatest p-funk song ever made: *FLASHLIGHT*
🔥🏆👍👏👑💖🔥🔥🔥
Loved hearing this,, so glad we have the web,,,take care Bernie, hey, my parents were strict too,,but the 1st funk I heard was sly stone's stuff, the late 70's was the first and the best funk time for me,,,,
seeing dude for the first time tonight down the street at a tiny little hippy club. its going to get weird
Lovely man. Who is interviewing him?
Andre 3000's style is similar to Bernie Worrel
What?? Get real 3000 would have to live 2 lifetimes to be near Bernie
His style was similar to Andre 3000 when he was young.
Andre 3000 style was the other way around he got that from the master Bernie Worrell OK !
Yes, let's discuss sampling (or the lack thereof) in Hip Hop over the last several years. Hip Hop or at least the best selling Hip Hop sounds like 100% crap minus samples from the best musicians in the WORLD!
Oh well... I'll just keep sitting around here on youtube listening to kids tell me how "good" that music is that they're doing. What's really HAWT or the chord progressions and key changes in it... (rolls eyes). #Reaping what's sown...
