Josep Manuel Concernau Robles Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) https://soulfuldetroit.com/showthread.php?23834-Lenny-Pakula-former-MFSB-keyboardist-and-arranger-dies-at-73 The organ player Lenny Pakula died recently in a very sad illness and poverty situation,… How many PIR tracks I likes specially his Hammond organ touch as in the case of O'Jays "You Got Your Hooks On Me"! RIP, MFSB member, session musician and great arranger, Mr. Pakula. Edited July 25, 2019 by Josep Manuel Concernau Robles 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Josep Manuel Concernau Robles Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share Posted July 25, 2019 One of my all time PIR favorite tunes, "Cabaret" that opens the "Black & Blue" album by Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes (no lead voices but what harmonies and what big band sound!) was arranged by Lenny Pakula. According to the PIR singles catalogue he recorded a 45 under his name that should be a very rare one (I supousse is an instrumental)… I searched it some times in youtube unfructuously.

The Yank Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 The single is not on you tube- there are about 10 copies on discogs - 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
