Wayman Tisdale hall of fame collegiate hoops star, all-star NBA pro, world-renowned contemporary jazz bassist and ... undercover funkateer? Yes, Wayman lived a rich and varied life, yet an unaware planet never learned of his longing to play funk music. Some lucky-ass fans got a glimpse into his alter-ego of Tiz onstage, but most of us knew him simply as a gentle giant of music and life. Tiz is the six-foot-eight (in platforms and full fro) swaggering funk master whom led The Fonkie Planetarians along the hallowed yet greasy pathways trod by funk purveyors Parliament-Funkadelic, Bootsy Collins, Cameo, et al. In fact, major players George Clinton and George Duke have joined in The Fonk Record festivities, as well as the late Ali Woodson from The Temptations and you know it doesn t get any funkier than Motown.

This is the real deal fonk with a story hatched from mind and soul of The Fonklord himself. Join Sunshine, Tha Hoinzz, Tha Suckaz, Stanky the Sock and the regal yet fonkie Tiz for a low-down dirty stomp in The Fonk Record prepare to get fonkatized! -- Thom Jurek ~ All Music Guide
