Frank Washington's Ice The Original by The Original Producer Studio II Revue In 1983…in a recording studio in Philadelphia…A small group of world renowned Philly-based musicians, assembled by Executive Producer Carvel Watson, gathered together and created a dance floor classic that has since swept not only the nation, but the far reaches of the WORLD! It is ICE! Ice is the timeless story of a mysterious dance floor DIVA – a worldly, experienced WOMAN, and the effects she had on a NAÏVE, unsophisticated MAN – it is a story of SEDUCTION, PASSION, and HEARTBREAK! Ice is as cool as it is hot. The impressive lineup of musicians was comprised of percussion wizard DOC GIBBS (bandleader of the Emeril Live Food Network TV Show), bass virtuoso DOUG GRIGSBY (currently Tina Maria’s music director and bandleader), and the phenomenal Kenny Jackson on the Leslie guitar. Additionally, world-renowned keyboard master, BILL JOLLY (Philadelphia’s Main Events band leader/music director) blended in his harmonic genius, while the internationally renowned saxophone master SAM PEAKES provided a soulful wail. Awesome vocalist FRANK WASHINGTON provided the smooth harmonic vocal story. Brenda Payton (Love on a Two Way Street), wrote, arranged and sang the background vocals along with Mickey and Foo (The Best of Friends). The audio remix producer on this production was the one and only T. Life the producer of Evelyn Champaign King’s huge disco hit “Shame, Only Love Could Be The Blame,” which also coincidently featured on sax, and was co produced by the great Sam Peaks. Philly Producer CARVEL WATSON, who has meticulously selected some of Philadelphia’s most notable musicians and artists to participate in the project. Ice provided a raw and poignant vehicle that successfully blended all of their combined talents and it became a major hit.
