Subject:In Memory of Larry WashingtonHi Everyone. Vincent Montanna, Jr. called me here at the studio last night to let me know a bit of sad news. Philly Percussionist, Larry Washington passed away Saturday, March 6th 1999 in the hospital, due to complications related to lung cancer. As we all know, Larry was a great guy, a great musician, and a hell of a lot of fun, and a pleasure to work with in any studio session, over the many years. He put his heart and soul into his work, and the sound of his congas still sing out, loudly, from those tracks as being unmistakably... "Larry Washington". Keep a thought and a prayer in your heart, in warm memory of Larry. Gene Leone Larry's brother, Leonard asked to let everyone know that Services will be held for those that wish to attend: Saturday, March 13th, 1999, at 11:00am Mount Olivet Tabernacle Baptist Church 42nd Street & Wallace Street Philadelphia. PA For More Information, contact Larry's brother, Leonard @ 215-247-3702http://www.allmusic.com/cg/x.exe?p=amg&sql=B136210
