Steve Arrington's Hall Of Fame
b. Steven Ralph Arrington, 5th March 1956, Dayton, Ohio, U.S.A.
From Ohio, Steve Arrington originally played drums with The Young Mystics.
When the group broke up, Steve moved to San Francisco while remaining members of the group combined with members of another Ohio group, Black Satin Soul, to form the funk band Slave.
With the success of Slave, Steve returned to the group in 1978, initially as a backing singer but later as lead vocalist on hits 'Just A Touch Of Love','Watching You' and 'Wait For Me'.
Politics within the group led to Steve's departure in 1983, following which he formed a new group, Steve Arrington's Hall Of Fame.
Their Atlantic Records debut was 'Steve Arrington's Hall Of Fame' on Atlantic Records in 1983.
The album made a big impact on the dancefloors, both sides of the Atlantic, mainly due to the funk tune 'Way Out', which received a great deal of radio play on many soul stations along with the tracks 'You Meet My Approval' and 'Last Night / Night Before'.
'Positive Power' followed in 1984, again on Atlantic Records and featured the popular dancer 'Mellow As A Cello'
