Love this group 🖤👑

"H.R. Funkenstuff can get a little, but can't get enough..."

The Rolling Stones audience is probably what makes up a lot of the present day MAGA cult. Seems like the same kind of people. I wonder how that makes Mick Jagger feel.

Listening to Matt Fink interviews are much more rewarding than Andre Cymone. It's like Cymone, who actually lived under the same roof as Prince early on, made a concerted effort to avoid saying anything worthwhile about him knowing how much his fans want to hear it. He might as well flat out said, "Yeah, I know a lot about him but I'm not here to talk about him." Listening to him went from boredom to frustration really quick. It sucked.

Loving this. Old school style show.

Good to hear from Omar and see that he's still at it....Mandrill was a great band.

Get on with the interview

I was surprised neither Tomi or Scott could recall what LP 'On the One' was on. I mentioned "Larry Blackman is Cameo" on a Facebook Cameo page and Tomi Jenkins took offense. Thinking no other members had involvement into what the group created. I was just trying to say people can't think Cameo and not have Larry come to mind. Similar to Lionel with the Commodores or Frankie Beverly with Mase. I'm an old head music fan. I read the credits on the LP as I listened. Lol.. my apologies still Mr. Tomi Jenkins non the less. 🤘🏽

I always loved Stacy & her music still listen to it all the time sixteen is my favorite album of hers

I’m so sorry, but you’re talking about the wrong song not And The Beat Goes On “ The song that you are talking about is Home Made Loving” I am the drummer on And The Beat Goes On!!! So please take this lie down!!!!😮

thanks for fixing it! GOLD

I've never really listened to The Black Crowes, but after watching this video, I'm gonna give them a shot.

Great stuff! 💜🐾

I love when he says, "It's really not that difficult." That's from HIS perspective, remember. I bet Charlie Parker didn't find it too difficult either. After getting humiliated onstage by a fed up drummer for not being good enough, that is. He in turn mastered the alto and changed music forever, so, for some, apparently, all it takes is getting to know the instrument through hours of practice and the rest comes naturally. All I'm saying is that there are countless people who can't even commit to an instrument to practice for hours on end over a period of years. For them it's difficult for sure. I'm in that group, by the way.

I saw this one -a reconstituted WAR. AWB jammed!!!! the O'Jay's had Nate Best up there i think-he didn't last long. the Ohio Players could have been the Back album era i don't know Billy Beck was with them on the Back album. with horns. Teena Marie Was cool. Maze was good. EWF without Maurice was okay.

What a great interview and beautiful person; all to discover she's married to Will Downing, it just blew my mind. He's one of my favorite artists. My wife loves "I Go Crazy"

That's crazy to think about but Prince's musical output was so tremendous he had to form other bands around him to hand it off to. Unfortunately, their level of vocal talent wasn't even close to his so they didn't do it much justice, but I imagine he was satisfied with their performances. To be so good at so many instruments it's interesting how he was also so difficult to beat when it came to basketball, ping pong and bowling. His ability to improve at something was so incredible he didn't need as much time as the rest of us, apparently. That's just a phenomenal level of focus, coordination, dexterity and timing. Has there been anyone else born like that in history? I'm surprised he didn't get better at dancing than Michael Jackson. Jackson was determined to be the best ever at it so that was that, I guess. People would rather LOOK at something fascinating than listen to something fascinating, so Michael had more attention during their careers. The tide is turning now though now that they're both gone and Prince's music is drawing more attention than what Michael recorded. I suspect Prince's musical legacy will continue to have a greater impact than Michael's going forward.

I keep coming back to this fascinating interview because it's so full of great stories that touch on so many musical icons and puts lots of interesting things into perspective. I learn so much listening. From Aretha Franklin to Ray Charles to James Brown and more!! Incredible interview!! Information gold mine!!

Thelonious Monk's name should have been over Herbie Mann at that club. No one realized how exquisite and special Monk's music and approach to playing and composing was at that point, apparently. Eric Dolphy's name could've been above it too, if you just listen and compare what the two of them were doing, but Monk was definitely more significant than both of them.

Those musicians that recorded with Miles and left the sessions thinking it was 'horse shit' probably only later praised it just to help it sell. After hearing a lot of his later work with guys like Marcus Miller and all I almost threw up. His best work was probably with his two legendary quintets. Miles Smiles, for example, is much better than In A Silent Way or Bitches Brew. Hiring guys like Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter and Tony Williams was genius. Of course his work with John Coltrane is also genius. Miles Davis and John Coltrane records are the standard for great jazz. Thelonious Monk records too.

It's amazing how many great artists Paulette intersected and supported during her lengthy career. What a stellar lineup! Born out of Chicago, one of the great cities of American Music!

My Faves "I don't know how to say, and Nightime Lover" 💯💯💯

Happy b-day, Uncle George!

'If You Don't Believe' from "This is Niecy" by, Deniece Williams, has the most wonderful trombone solo played by, George Bohanon. The fact that George Massenburg had been a trombone player made a difference to the mix. A gorgeous song and performance.

Isnt she a lesbian?

This is an awesome find! Thank you for always grabbing great musicians! You're doing an awesome job!

Only three surviving members are still alive at the height of the successful years, are Billy Beck, James "Diamond"Williams and Marvin Pierce! I'm really enjoying this interview, good to see 25:52 Marvin!

I want Jill to be asked directly her thoughts on… SHEILA E. 😮😂 lol

Brother, your voice and questions are very important. I’ll be sharing with family and friends! Excellent start.

A damn shame. Travesty. These girls defined the PF vocal sound of the peak commercial period. No way they shouldn't be in the Rock Hall. Thanks for the she-funk y'all.

I just witnessed the lies that Michael just spit. My name is James Maddox Jr. Lead singer and percussionist of The ADC BAND! IM ON ALL THE ADC BANDS ALBUMS! IM NOT DIE NIGGA!

Little late to this interview, Tawatha is a truly class act both in music and personality, loved listening to her, very humble, wonderful human being. Currently got Tawatha on replay with Gary Bartz, keep goin on, sublime vocals. Luv 4rom UK

Wow this is so cool. I worked with Neftali at a music store in the late 80’s for a short time. I had fun there but it was a grind to make money. Neftalis voice and temperament hasn’t changed one bit. Great guy. Kept me grounded when I was stressing😅. A positive force for sure

5:06 when he asks Jody, when your looking up at the JumboTron, did it throw you off beat? 😂😂 In my opinion, you’re so locked in, that it’s impossible for that to happen, unless you’re just not that good, or are in your early stages of learning an instrument. It’s like looking in a mirror and playing your instrument at the same time, “No sweat”.

I left this video for a bit to listen to a Madhouse album. It was Madhouse 8. I found it complete garbage. Probably because I don't value smooth jazz. I don't understand how people can listen to it. Eric is right, and Prince was right to leave his name off of it.
