Billy Nelson
Born in Plainfield, New Jersey on January 28, 1951, Billy "Bass" Nelson was the original Funkadelic bass player from 1966 to 1971. He has recorded with the Temptations, the Commodores, Chairman of the Board, Lionel Richie, Smokey Robinson, Jermaine Jackson and Lenny Williams. He has also released in 1994 a solo project on Rykodisc called "O.G. Funk." Since then, Billy Nelson has more or less joined the P.Funk camp again.
