First off I don't think he lied--I think he exaggerates certain stories to make them more interesting and hilarious. I sincerely doubt anyone thinks TT is the go-to guy as a Motown historian! When I want that, I read Taraborelli. When I want to laugh, I read TT. He is the John Waters of Motown!
Hey MM--do you remember the time Diana beat the crap out of some tabloid paparazzi with her high heel and ended up flat on her azz in the middle of the street? Hee hee--that's our girl! If Tony Turner told that story, people would say he made it up! And yes I remember when DR had that meltdown onstage where she kicked the monitor! One reviewer said something to the effect of that kick would have made Pele proud!
