James Patrick Green Biography By: Opal Summers

James Patrick Green- or Pat to his friends... came up in the Northern California music scene of Sacramento and the San Francisco Bay Area as a young keyboard player, performing with cover R&B funk bands.

In 1978 Green and Jones hooked up with producer/recording artist Robert Brookins (formerly with Clark Duke project, Stephanie Mills, Geoffrey Osborn, and currently music director and keyboardist for Earth, Wind, and Fire) to form the group Afterbach... featuring their 1981 Billboard dance single "It’s You" on Maurice White’s (leader of EWF) ARC Label. AfterBach performed inconcert with a diverse range of groups like Jeff Lorber, Ray Goodman and Brown, and Alton McClain.

After a European tour with AfterBach and disco divas Alton McClain & Destiny("It Must Be Love"-Polydor Records) in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, Green played with Bay Area artists Eddie Mininfield/saxophone and John Paris/drums(formerly with Sheila E., Patty LaBell, and currently EWF) in dance clubs and in concert with various groups like Con Funk Shun.

Throughout the ‘80s and early ‘90s Green turned his attention to writing/producing and audio record engineering.
