Glen Goins
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glenn Lamont Goins was a singer and musician from the Parliament Funkadelic Funk Mob in the 1970s. His first (known) recordings were as part of the group "The Bags". They released a single in 1972 "It's Heavy" b/w "Don't mess with my baby".
Born and raised in Plainfield, New Jersey in a family of talented musicians, this master vocalist with the strong, haunting gospel voice is perhaps best know for calling in the Mothership in the P Funk live shows, such as on the renowned P Funk/Rubber Band Earth Tour. He was one of the first of many musicians to leave the group in reaction to what was perceived as very bad management by band leader George Clinton. He formed Quazar in 1978 as a renegade Funk outfit, which also featured his younger brother Kevin Goins.
He died from Hodgkin's Disease in 1978.
