biggrin Love the horns ,Danny Websters' rhythm guitar, Roger Parker's drums,Steve Arrington and Steve Washington's vocals and of course Mark Adams talking lead bass. From Slave, Roger & The Human Body/Zapp, The Ohio Untouchables/Players, and Sun, God bless Dayton, Ohio and all the bands that did her proud.

It's gotta be some holy water in that shit lol And our story begins down in Cincinatti with James Brown and King Records, a trio of brothers named Isley, a couple of Collinses named Bootsy and Phelps, and later on a fantastic,all the way live band called Lakeside wink

They moved to Teaneck and named their label "T-Neck" after it, but all the brothers were born and raised in Cincy. Steve Washington from Slave was born in Newark though and one of the horn players from Ohio Players was his uncle.
