Walter Scott, co-founder of R&B group 'The Whispers', dies at 81 | Express Tribune | ET-HI07 Walter Scott, of The Whispers, has died at 81. He helped shape soul music with hits like "Rock Steady." Walter Scott, co-founder of the renowned R&B group The Whispers, has passed away at the age of 81. His death was confirmed by family and friends, marking the end of a musical legacy that helped define soul and R&B from the 1960s onward. Born in Fort Worth, Texas, Walter and his twin brother Wallace “Scotty” Scott relocated to Los Angeles in 1959. The brothers began singing while attending Jordan High School, and in 1964, they formed The Whispers, a group that would become one of R&B’s most enduring acts. The Whispers achieved mainstream success in the late 1970s and 1980s with a series of gold and platinum records. Their most celebrated hits include “And the Beat Goes On,” “Rock Steady,” “It’s a Love Thing,” “Lady,” “Love is Where You Find It,” and “Love at Its Best.” In a 2017 interview with the L.A. Sentinel, Walter reflected on their breakthrough: “We knew by 1981, we didn’t think of it as made it, we thought of it as the validation from our peers and fans that they liked us.” Scotty added, “From that point on, up until 1988 everything we recorded was either gold or platinum.” Walter and Scotty remained active performers well into their later years. In 2023, they headlined the Taste of Soul Family Festival, continuing to bring their classic sound to new generations of fans. #WalterScott #TheWhispers #RIPWalterScott #RBMusicLegend #MusicTribute Walter Scott | The Whispers | R&B group | music legend dies | soul music icon | 1980s R&B | classic soul hits | And the Beat Goes On | Scott brothers | old school music | music group co-founder | entertainment obituary | music history | tribute to legends | legacy in music Walter Scott, The Whispers, R&B group, music legend dies, soul music icon, 1980s R&B, classic soul hits, And the Beat Goes On, Scott brothers, old school music, music group co-founder, entertainment obituary, music history, tribute to legends, legacy in music ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Keep up with the day's top news stories with The Express Tribune's YouTube Channel.
