    growing up a little white boy from a small town in Wisconsin I used to watch Soul Train every Saturday at 1 p.m. growing up that's when I first discovered the Commodores and I knew when I grow up I want to be a black musician and play in a funk band!!!!!

      Slick Mic -- SO you were little white boy & you watched Soul Train on 📺 If God wanted you to be black he would had created you black . Why you couldn't be a white musician that played in a funk band or any other type of band music you wanted to play in. To me music has no color & neither does a soul take care 🎤🎶🎷🎵🎹🎼🎸🎺April 17,2020

    O acesso as gravações eram muito difíceis. Você consumia o que tinha. Um compacto simples e olhe lá. Esta versão estendida somente se ouvia em algumas rádios. O saudoso Cidinho Cambalhota, que era label manager de gravadora (não lembro agora se era EMI) era o editor de Lps que levavam nome da rádio Manchete era o cara que viajava para os EUA para ouvir o que tocava lá, e comprava os discos que nos fins de semana, a gente ia ouvir nos bailes. Algumas equipes de som como a BLACK POWER do Mister Paulo Santos era uma que tinha versões remix de diversos sucessos e a gente enlouquecia porque só ouvia lá. Era louco, mas era bom!!!
    Eu trabalhei com Sr. Nelson da Sons e Efeitos, conheci o pessoal da Pop Rio, Cindinho Cambalhota, Breno da Motoca, e Mister Paulo Santos. Só Sucesso!
