Captain Sky
Real name: Daryl Lonnie Cameron
Effective period / Period of releases: 1978 - 1987
P-funk - soul bassist - singer - songwriterBorn 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 (Pop Goes The Captain and The Adventures Of Captain Sky), and one on TEC in 1980 (Concerned Party No.1).
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.
