Clyde Stubblefield [1943-2017; funk, R&B and soul drummer with James Brown] -
Clyde was a good drummer. He had to be or JB would’ve docked him or dumped him. And self-taught!
West grand, I didn’t see this til now.... but Victoria Beckham is a decent designer. I’ve seen her designs when I’ve been out shopping [[in the past, not now...Covid). Good classic designs, good fabric choices but very $$$$ & she doesn’t really design for the average woman [[which is now 14-16 US)
And Victoria Beckham's fashion business has run at a loss since it was started in 2008.
It loses millions every year, but performance in recent years was said to be 'in line with expectations'.
Surely those losses will have to be addressed at some point...
Have to be addressed. When your designs aren’t for the average woman & are $$$$ this comes as no surprise to me & a lot of other women.

I remember hearing Melissa Joan Hart is named after the Allman Brothers song.
I used to enjoy "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch", probably because I grew up watching "Bewitched".
