For more than 50 years he has held down the bedrock bottom for one of the greatest funk and R&B bands of all-time and his deep pocket rhythms have set the foundation for dozens of classic songs and 18 Top 20 R&B singles.  Alexander helped reform the group after most original members perished in the 1967 plane crash that claimed Otis Redding's life. From 1976 onward, the Bar-Kays’ funk jams included “Shake Your Rump to the Funk,” “Too Hot to Stop,” “Let’s Have Some Fun,” “Holy Ghost,” “I’ll Dance,” “Move Your Boogie Body,” “Hit and Run,”
