Musician. He was a Singer, Songwriter, Bass Player and Music Producer. He lit up the charts with "You Are My Starship". He was one of the great R&B bass players of our time. He had tantalizing duets with Carn ("Valentine Love") and Hyman ("Can't We Fall In Love Again") are Quiet Storm staples. He also scored major hits as a solo artist. The midtempo "Take Me I'm Yours" was a top 5 smash in 1978
and the even bigger "Wide Receiver" reassured R&B fans of his funk credentials. After eight albums and nearly a dozen R&B hits, he stopped recording by end of the 1980s, but his songs lived on, many of which were covered or sampled by other artists for the next three decades.
