Jeanette Washington

Jeanette Washington joined P-Funk in 1975. She and Debbie Wright became first female members of the group. Washington formed the band Parlet in 1978 with Wright and Mallia Franklin for their first album "Pleasure Principle." She recorded the group's remaining two albums "Invasion Of the Booty Snatchers" in 1979 and "Play Me Or Trade Me" in 1980 with Shirley Hayden and Janice Evans. Jeanette Washington is the only Parlet member to have remained in the band for the duration of the group's career. She left P-Funk in late 1980. Many have written inaccurate information about Washington. She is not "Baby Washington" from James Brown.
