I would join you guys if i knew what the hell you were talking about.
I remember Mike telling me that he spent an entire night listening to the Rolling Stones "Let It Bleed" album because he was totally knocked out with the sound quality of the album.
I heard from my brother that Mike passed last November. Apparently he fell at home and died in the hospital.
If anyone was more responsible for the "Motown Sound" it had to be Mike. The guy was a...
I totally understand P&H.
The irony is, at the time of formation, I told the members that they could fight all the want on that forum. I will stay out of any squabbles. The forum remains peaceful and interesting. Go figure....
Those of you who have been around here for a while will remember the relentless bickering that went on in all of the forums regarding the Supremes. I got sick of dealing with it and formed the DRATS...
Apparently, Pete was a little late getting to his drums because he was playing with a chimpanzee back stage. As he was rushing to his drums Sullivan said 'Way to go sport".
Russell, when this is done I bet your first concert will be a doozy.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!! Don't you have like a huge cat box for them?
What would I do without you arr&bee......But then I know nothing about tending elephants.
Sorry for the delay. As far as anything in the vaults that would be worth anything, I still have my doubts. Norman pretty much knew what he wanted to do on a project and that, more than likely, left...
Nice piece, Heikki. I've known of the man for years but knew little about his story.
Trump.... trump..... trump??....Oh you mean that pain in the ass that ONCE was the president.
I have said in the past that Spotify is guilty of some of the lowest royalty pay outs. As I mentioned, my Motown royalty was roughly 5 cents per single. The Spotify rate was something like .0005% per...
Thank you Bob.
Peace&Harmony. I'm not sure what issues he was dealing with when we presented the song. Too bad. Her missed out on a strong song.
Luther could be problematic. My production partner, Teddie Morrow and I had a song for him that his manager was very enthusiastic over. He was on a roll and refused to listen to it.
Maybe Bob O will look in and tell me what I don't know for sure.
Snake, a misunderstanding. I've been looking at the video. I'm not sure who is with Smokey. Could be Marv Tarplin. I never met the guy. Who I thought was Cal Harris could be Art Stewart.
Russell, all the best to you and the guys for the Holidays. Looking forward to the time you are back to live appearances.
I was fortunate to have worked for the man for eight years. Thank you, Berry.You look great dude. God bless.
Well, the Funks had time to learn the songs, like any band does, so I can't accept time as an excuse for reading charts at a performance. I was aware that things were not all that cool with the guys...
Stu, looking back, I think the whole Funk Brothers episode had problems. First of all, they didn't come off as a band. I couldn't figure out why they were reading charts, Mostly sitting down as if in...
TBF I'm a little late to this show. Thank you for the kind words on the album. Here are a couple of things about the album that may interest you. Curtis wanted a different cover that would show the...
Guess I got to the dance a little late.
