“Party Down” Little Beaver  Cat Records (1974) Willie Hale was a session musician who played on such hits as Betty Wright’s “Clean Up Woman”, and George McCrae’s “Rock Your Baby”.   The back-up musicians here are a who’s who of the Miami funk/soul sound and TK, Alston and Glades Records stable. Party Down Part 1  features background vocals by Betty Wright, pianist Benny Lattimore (“Let’s Straighten It Out”), and organ man Timmy Thomas (“Why Can’t We Live Together”).

“Come on girl, don’t be shy, we’re just partying down, you and all your friends, we’re gonna party down.”
