1967 - The Sparks
John Cooksey on Drums, Larry Robinson on Keys and Lead Vocals & Olmon Hairston on Bass, Patrick Adams on Guitar. Our group toured with The Young Rascals, The Commodores and others. The highlight was appearing in the Warner Brothers film "UP THE DOWN STAIRCASE"

1968 - Beginnings
Recording at Advantage Recording Studio NYC with engineer Jim Vickers
I always knew what I wanted to do. I use to hang out in studios from age 15.
First session I ever saw was George Kerr recording the O'Jays at Broadway Recording. In 1986 I got to work with George and Lloyd Price.

1969 - Black Ivory
Leroy Burgess, Russell Patterson and Stuart Bascombe have been like younger brothers to me since 1969. They were the vehicle of my first production successes. We have all grown over the years - together - apart- and together again.&

Don't Turn Around
Written. Produced and Arranged by Patrick Adams

-Thank you Russell, Stuart and Leroy

1975 - 1977
After Perception Records most of my work was as a String and Brass arranger & Songwriter.
-Thank You, Ed and Tony

1976 - Universal Robot Band
Over the years I have taken great pleasure in performing under different names. Each is just a reflection of one blend of musical flavors. Each is a thread of thought. It gives me the freedom to create and explore.

1977 - Art Webb/ "MISTER FLUTE"
Talent alone will not insure success. Art and I did a great album at the wrong time and the wrong genre. Too early for Disco and not ethereal enough for Jazz purist we got lost in the transition. Art also appeared on my "Salsoul Christmas Jollies II" Album.
I hope we get to work together again.
-Thank You Art
