#shorts Sands LV Lucy Shropshire Sings "Congratulations" By Vesta Williams, Tena Clark & Gary Prim
This song "Congratulations" was co-authored and recorded by Vesta Williams, RIP. Vesta was a real powerhouse who started her career singing background for Chaka Khan. In Vesta's recording of this song, you can hear Chaka's influences in her vocals.
I had the pleasure of working with Vesta in a musical called "Larr Bear & the Teddy Town Kids which was a musical conceived by Larry Hart and Directed by Linda Mann. Vesta and I were a part of the "3 Singing Bears". What a treat having worked with her on this project along with the fabulous Jeannine Marie, Andrea McCardle and The Godfather of Rap Curtis Blowe. Also Ozzie Osborne was a part of the cast.
This short is a tribute to cohort Vesta Williams.
Again I am with my musical friends from my time in Las Vegas: on keyboards, Tom Lyons, on percussion, Derek Cordero, on drums Phil Leo, On guitar John Fredricks and on bass & music director Brad Bobo, who was my MD for many years...RIP my friend.
A lot of time spent with these gentleman. They were very professional, talented and very kind. We performed at the Sands a few times and always had a great audience and sound crew. The Sands is very different now but many people harbor many wonderful memories from the good old days at the Sands. This video is from "the good old days".
