Shelia E's Brother?

Hey Y'all.

I don't really know if this thread goes here, but I'll give it a shot.

I was wondering, does anyone have any pictures of Shelia E's brother. I know he played in her band in the 80s on the congos (?). I remember he was tall and good looking with like a skunk stripe in his hair and glasses.

Does anyone have any pics of him from the 80s else alone or with the band?

Thanks!

Do you mean Pete Escovedo Jr.? I saw him perform with Sheila E. last year and he looks better than he did years ago IMO. Here is Pete Jr.:

You are really going to have to specify who you are talking about--the Escovedo family is big. lol

Peter Michael Escovedo used to be in the house band for Martin Short when he had his own talk show. I remember one day I caught the tail end of one particular episode and I saw a very familiar looking female on the bass guitar and I remember thinking: "Nah! My mind must be playing tricks on me." Upon closer inspection I noticed that it was indeed Rhonda Smith. Turned out that she was in the band as well. I watched the show all the time after that. Mind you this was back in 1999/2000 when she left the NPG for a little while and Larry Graham stood in for her. That reminds me, I remember seeing an episode where Sheila gave an interview. Then afterwards she played a drum solo and Peter Michael kept interrupting her by blowing air into an empty water bottle and she was getting all frustrated. lol I'd love to see that again if anybody has it.

If there is any confusion regarding Sheila E band members names, refer to the inner sleeve of Romance 1600 for individual photos with names stated for each.

I remember seeing Peter Michael on Wayne Brady's old talk show.
