Re: RIP Sugarfoot
Wow! This is my first hearing of this. They had lots of good music, and he was a central part.

Re: RIP Sugarfoot
Sad news!!!
I believe he was the inspiration for the character Bobby Proud on the animated series 'The Proud Family'.
Bobby is also the lead vocal in this clip.
69 seems kinda yound to die nowadays.
RIP.

I saw them in Hollywood in 1985. He was badass.

Re: RIP Sugarfoot
A huge part of my childhood.
Rollercoaster and I Want to be Free were staples of the summer.
Sweet Sticky Thing as well.
Saw them years after their heyday but still was awesome.
Rest well Sugarfoot
