We at TMOTTGoGo Media are saddened today to learn of the passing of Go-Go Music’s own Lorenzo “Go-Go Lorenzo” Queen. Although Lorenzo came through the ranks with some of go-go’s legendary groups such as Petworth Band, he is most widely known for his hit song, along with The Davis Pinckney Project “You Can Dance If You Want To,” (listen below) where he performed at live at the original Go-Go Live at the Capital Center concert that took place back in 1987.
Our prayers and condolences go up, out and with his family, friends and the many musicians he shared the stage with.
