And George Hawkins is a great bassist and vocalist.

Incidentally, my favorite harmony George did was on “One More Time With Feeling” on John’s solo album.

So true. Steve is so good and all the big names have used him at one time or another. The list is too long but he has recorded with Mick Jagger, Eric Clapton, Roberta Flack, Stevie Nicks, Whitney Houston, Anita Baker. That is just scratching the surface. I love that Chris used him again on her 2004 solo album. He is always in demand. His drum crack on The Smile I Live For gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.
