Steve Washington of Slave has passed. May he rip.
Damn! RIP
Hey Good Lookin and Do Fries Go With That Shake are awesome. And he did a lot on that Tackheads album.
Some of my Best Jokes as well.
I have yet to listen to Jimmy G and the Tackheads. However, I remain enamored of Washington’s bass playing technique on “Hey Good Lookin” even today. It’s such a cool style with its popping and sliding of the instrument’s strings!
RIP
Cool. A few more: Life Styles of the Roach & Famous. Inc. Thang Band. He also did some co-production on George’s Some of my best jokes are Friends. (Bulletproof)
He could get a nice tone on trumpet as well. Him and GC got it going pretty good in the 80’s and of course, Slave- the most underrated funk band ever.
No doubt. He kinda sorta stepped in after the Junie era.
