If something is gone, there was a reason: money/publishing, no living witness, or somebody said “no” (you’d be shocked how many “no’s” I get).

Maurice pre-EWF? A dingy Salty Peppers 45 and a funny flat-tire story in Oklahoma. That’s it. Cool story but woulda just been 10 mins extra on a story not leading us to EWF.

The Salty Peppers is a card us music geeks flash at the “I only know September” crowd—cool one upsmanship trick, but not the movie.

My producers and HBO wanted the band in 20 minutes. My first cut hit EWF an hour fifteen in. Impossible lol.

And yeah, Maurice got considered for Prince and MJ gigs—but that’s not the story. The story is what he did to land on that shortlist.

Chuck D is one of the greatest portrait artists working, right now.
Original.
Insightful.
It may be difficult to take that information in, as he is also a bonafide HipHop Icon. I’m not coming from subjective bias. We just don’t have the bandwidth to accept challenging realities.

@ogrukiat Super important 1. They smoke ANYONE with their harmony game 2. Leon ushered in the Boogie (post disco) genre.

@vurnt22 They did live throughout—-was too costly so only certain few did it (mostly those who insisted they can’t lip synch ——-but this is biggest misconception——some ep were live throughout

@ClassicGuitarR1 Lemme throw more gas on fire: of all the instruments I love Prince for? Bass. If you listen to his bass work? Jesus H. That doc covers the fact that writers & critics take his magical musicianship for granted
