Questlove Instagram – Couple Of Things:
1. I LOVE when we transform @TheBeatles way past recognition 🤣🤣🤣😂
2. @ChakaKhan is a genius & her catalog needs exploring (sign of a true artist is how much their filler BANGS: not the hits everyone else knows 🥱
3. As a member of @RRHOF it’s killing me that we have this system that honors the point guard but not the entire team: I seen this w @LionelRichie @NileRodgers Chaka & a few others (The Famous Flames/The Miracles/The E Street Band/leaving Randy out of the Jackson 5 when he has been playing in the band since 1972—-3 years after his bros started, ijs)
We gotta figure out a system that doesn’t make band members disposable especially with a cannon that deep.
3. As a cat who has spent the last 5 -6 years watching THOUSANDS of hours of concert footage of 70s era monsters I will secretly say that maybe perhaps 65% of these bands sound “just aight” compared to what they put down in a contained sweetened studio.
Seriously you are hard pressed to find a band unit that is better live than they are in the studio.
I never knew Rufus was THIS tight—-the #StompinAtTheSavoy lp is the only example I got of their magic (lp came out when I was 12 & most of their appearances was lyp sync——-I mean I kinda remember this ep when I was 4 but I wasn’t “paying attention ATTENTIVELY” (™️ Tip)——-anywho hats off to @tonymaiden1 & bobbywatson & Kevin Murphy & Andre Fischer for displaying jaw dropping mastery of their instruments with their pre “Sweet Thing”/“Aint Nobody” days.
4. I must find more footage
5. I’m getting all these band members in idc | Posted on 06/Mar/2024 16:26:20
