Honoring Barry White

"Ohhh, Baby." The City Council of Los Angeles finally agreed on something.

In a unanimous vote, council members decided to name a park recreation center after R&B legend Barry White.

White recently underwent some serious surgery. Apparently, he's been sick for years and is awaiting a kidney transplant.

The recreation center is in the community of South Park, the place where White grew up. The singer has remained connected with his old digs. Last year he even got involved in a local protest over land use in the neighborhood.

The Left Coast Report notes that there was little opposition to naming the center after White. There was, however, some concern that kids who play there might experience an unusual side effect - with no advance warning their voices may suddenly drop several octaves.

I wonder if people still use this guy's stuff for "mood music" <nudge nudge> <wink wink>?

I used to think he was a joke in the 70's, but his music has grown on me. I hope everything works out for him. He's one of a kind.

Of COURSE people still use his music to get in the mood. His music works WONDERS for that. Honestly.

(Dire Straits also works
