An oustanding guitarist, Fuzzy Haskins was part of the original Funkadelics backing band that accompanied George Clinton and his Parliaments. Clinton subsequently changed the name to Parliament, then folded Funkadelic into Parliament and began using both lineups interchangeably. Haskins went on to play with numerous Clinton groups, and released two albums for Westbound, 1976's A Whole Nother Thang and 1978's Radio Active. An Ace compilation from 2001 reissued both albums on one CD. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi
