Artist Portrait

Captain Sky

voc, b, clap, *1957 US, Chicago
Singer / Musician of R&B/Soul
A.k.a. Daryl Lonnie Cameron Daryl Cameron

P-funk - soul bassist - singer - songwriter Born on 10.07.1957 in Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. Under this alias, Daryl assembled a large group of Chicago-based musicians and embarked on a recording career in 1979. He released two albums on AVI Records ([u]Pop Goes The Captain[/u] and [u]The Adventures Of Captain Sky[/u]), and one on TEC in 1980 ([u]Concerned Party No.1[/u]). Musically, these records could be considered as a mix between P.Funk, pre-historic electrofunk and raw sticky disco and are surely some of the heaviest Funk records ever recorded. Since 1981, Captain Sky has released a few 12" singles only, the last one in 1988 ('You Bring Me Up' on Triple T records) with a more acid-house feeling.
