Lester Snell
Lester (* 1946 in Memphis, TN) is a pianost, keyboardist, songwriter and producer. During his active years Lester worked together with Shirley Brown, Thomas Bingham, and Bertram Brown. He mainly worked as a songwriter and wrote several songs for Shirley Brown, Lynn White and J. Blackfoot, among others. A true all-rounder, Lester appears on several albums (e.g. on Shirley Brown's Timeless, Lynn White's New Me or Lynn White's Home Girl) in which he plays either with organ, keyboards, piano, or others instruments. From 1971 until the late 1970s he was a member of the Isaac Hayes Movement.
