Little Beaver (so dubbed as a child because of his prominent front teeth) was one of the extraordinarily talented musicians Henry Stone assembled at his Hialeah, FL-based T.K. Records label and its assorted imprints. Among the artists who recorded for Stone were K.C. \u0026amp; the Sunshine Band, Timmy Thomas, Gwen McCrae, Betty Wright, and Benny Latimore…and backing them on a lot of those records was Hale, laying down mellow ‘n’ funky, jazz-influenced licks on his hollow-body Gibson. Hale’s talent was so distinctive that when Stone finally let Hale step out of the studio shadows to record his own album on the Cat imprint, the effects were immediate and long-lasting. Featuring contributions from Thomas, Wright, Latimore, and Jaco Pastorius (under the name Nelson “Jocko” Padron), 1974’s Party Down scored a #2 hit with its title track and has been repeatedly sampled by latter-day rap artists ranging from\u003cstrong\u003e People Under the Stairs\u003c\/strong\u003e to \u003cstrong\u003eJay Z\u003c\/strong\u003e. himself (the “Party Life” track on his American Gangster album). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 Party Down\u003cbr\u003eA2 Party Down (Part Two)\u003cbr\u003eA3 Money Vibrations\u003cbr\u003eA4 Get Into The Party Life\u003cbr\u003eB1 I Can Dig It Baby\u003cbr\u003eB2 Let The Good Times Roll\u003cbr\u003eB3 Let's Stick Together\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little Beaver","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46202249216196,"sku":"WMX603497805525-LP","price":31.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1741\/5543\/products\/littlebeaver2.png?v=1664824189","url":"https:\/\/getondown.com\/products\/party-down-rhino-reserve-lp","provider":"Get On Down","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
