He did a great job playing bass on Frank Zappas original recording of Peaches en Regalia.
I think his dad was Johnny Otis, who had a R&B radio show out of Pasadena back in the day.
Nice stuff. Glad to see this.

I didn't know he played bass on peaches in regalia.

speaking of zappa and shuggie check out this acoustic jam they did for the johnny otis show back in 1970

I just discovered that very same Shuggie Otis song about a month ago.

My thoughts exactly...why the f*** haven't I heard this before now!?
Read about him on a random music blog.

Most excellent.
