Michael Jackson, Earth Wind & Fire, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin, Gap band & James Brown. Kun til kanten!

It's 106 miles to Chicago, they've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and they're wearing sunglasses....The brothers are Joliet Jake Blue (John Belushi) and Elmwood Blues (Dan Ackroyd)....and they're on a mission from God. Well actually they're on a mission to save the Catholic home where they grew up and to get the band back together. Seems simple enough but there are a LOT of obstacles in their way including US Marshalls, Chicago police, Illinois State Troopers, the Illinois Nazis, the Good Ol' Boys, and...the late, great Carrie Fisher playing "Mystery Woman" who comes HEAVILY armed! :o John Landis (Animal House, Coming to America, An American Werewolf in London) directed this wildly ambitious action comedy musical loosely adapted from the two titular fictional brothers who performed on Saturday Night Live around this time. Plot is but an afterthought when you have wall-to-wall car chases and/or extended musical numbers from several R&B music luminaries including Ray Charles, Cab Calloway, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, John Lee Hooker, and Chaka Khan. And that's not even accounting for an extended stacked cast including Kathleen Freeman, John Candy, Steven Williams, Henry Gibson, Charles Napier, and countless others!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Salt-N-Pepa, Usher, Prince, Diana Ross, Teena Marie, Chaka Khan, An industry veteran who currently serves as one of the directors for the Hip Hop Museum, Green outlines his career spanning five decades. This includes producing concerts and/or representing as a longtime agent for artists such as Usher, Prince, Diana Ross, Teena Marie, Chaka Khan, the Backstreet Boys - among othersThen there's the fine line between the grind in the streets and the hustle in the industry. Mark battled with con artists, drug dealers and pimps and people trying to show off their local high profile at the expense of his artists. “I didn't get too caught up in that because I had to keep one eye on the money!” He stayed focused, even when distractions of every kind showed up on the road–drugs, groupies, out-of-control artists–and he kept many ships afloat when everything should have drowned. But again, the show must go on. Mark's stellar reputation put him in high demand and working with Melba and soon Freddie Jackson, Dru Hill, Al B Sure, Grandmaster Flash, a young Usher and music pioneer Prince solidified his reputation in the industry. He would join Associated Booking Corp, where his talent for spotting rising stars and his love for hip-hop led to the signing of such game-changing artists as Salt-N-Pepa, Roxanne Shante, Kid & Play, and DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince. He would go on to become Director of Marketing at EMI/Capitol Records and expanded again, this time into radio, promotions, and into the fields of jazz and rap, earning accolades in promotions and even producing, writing, and publishing successful tracks like "Remember the First Time" for singer Eric Gable and "Midnight Hour" for rapper Lady Spice MC. Green moved as the industry moved and found himself in independent marketing and promotions consulting and secured a record deal with Light Year/Warner Brothers for his independent label, with singer/songwriter and R&B legend Teena Marie as his first artist. A year later, working with Northstar Distribution, Green became General Manager, distributing music for Prince's independent label, where the purple one signed R&B music siren Chaka Khan and the soul-stirrer and crooner Larry Graham on the artist's NPG Records. Soon, shaping his own destiny, Green launched Celebrity Talent Agency, representing a wide array of artists, where he's secured talents for tours, festivals and commercials nationally and globally. Ever-expanding his vision, Green also serves as Associate Director/General Manager of Lehman Performing Arts Center, Chairman of Artist Relations for The Hip-Hop Museum (THHM), and maintains ownership of Celebrity Talent Agency. The Show Must Go On! His riveting story of the industry's ups and downs and his own personal experiences will inspire anybody who believes in themselves to believe that they can live their wildest dreams!© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

When do you stop and take a breath? If you've listened to Luther Vandross or Tina Turner, or Sting, or Chaka Khan, or Teddy Pendergrass, or Roberta Flack, then you've heard Lisa Fischer sing. If you went to a Rolling Stones concert between 1989 and 2015, you saw Lisa as the band's lead female singer join Mick Jagger on stage. If you've seen her in person, as I've been fortunate to have done so twice, or if you've seen her on YouTube, take over the stage from Tina Turner during It's Only Rock and Roll, or the clips of her on stage with Mick Jagger, you already understand the extraordinary talent that she is linked to. Both of those are in the show notes. And if you've watched 20 Feet from Stardom, then you already know that Lisa is one of the greatest background singers that the world has ever heard. For most of us, those 20 feet might as well be the length of a trip to Mars. For Lisa, who won a Grammy in 1991 and then decided not to take center stage, those 20 feet were a choice. A choice that brings her joy. Lisa is a rare spirit who's had enormous influence and impact. If you see her perform, you're left with a belief that she has a direct connection with your soul. In those moments, she is alive in ways that stretch our understanding of what the word means. Leadership at its heart is the ability to unlock the potential of others, to make them feel more connected. The very best leaders do that by helping us to understand ourselves better, by helping us feel what we had never felt before. Lisa is proof that you don't have to stand center stage to do that. You just have to be honest with yourself about where you get your energy from, and then let that energy flow.

A Filarmônica de Paris acolhe até 17 de agosto a exposição "Disco - I'm Coming Out", dedicada ao estilo musical nascido no início dos anos 1970 nos Estados Unidos. O evento destaca o papel da música disco nas lutas políticas e sociais, tornando-se uma forma de expressão das comunidades LGBTQIA+, afro-americana e mulheres. Daniella Franco, da RFI em ParisA exposição traz quatro seções principais, que se concentram no surgimento da música disco, no contexto político e social da época, na popularização das discotecas e na expansão do estilo pelo mundo. Os espaços, decorados com muito brilho e neon, retratam a estética disco em diferentes fases e homenageam ícones como Diana Ross, Donna Summer, Chaka Khan, Gloria Gaynor, e também artistas franceses, como Cerrone e Sylvester. Em um imenso conjunto de arquivos exibidos na mostra, destacam-se vídeos e fotos, instrumentos musicais e materiais usados por DJs e gravadoras, figurinos imortalizados por cantoras e cantores, e obras de arte assinadas por artistas icônicos como Andy Warhol e Keith Haring. Durante todo o percurso, os visitantes são embalados por uma animada trilha sonora mixada pelo célebre produtor e DJ Dimitri from Paris.Um dos curadores da exposição, Jean-Yves Leloup, afirma que mais do que inspirar o espírito festivo nos visitantes, a mostra tem o objetivo de resgatar a história, abordando o fenômeno planetário da música disco. "O início dos anos 1970 é marcado por avanços sociais e políticos de algumas minorias, principalmente a LGBT, após o célebre movimento de Stonewall em 1969. Depois disso, há uma verdadeira liberação, com o recuo das perseguições policiais e administrativas que sofriam os espaços dedicados a essas minorias", diz.A partir dessas mudanças, nasce uma nova economia festiva e hedonista, impulsionada pela cultura LGBT, lembra. "A música disco vai rapidamente se tornar muito popular e cair no gosto do grande público, principalmente a partir de 1977, com o filme 'Embalos de sábado à noite', que vai tornar esse estilo musical em algo muito popular e para o grande público", lembra.As mulheres nas pistas de dançaCaindo no gosto do grande público, a música disco também vai se tornar um canal de expressão das mulhere, principalmente das afro-americanas que celebram a libertação do domínio masculino por meio de canções que se tornarão clássicos deste estilo musical. É o caso de "I will survive', de Gloria Gaynor, um hino feminista, que fala da superação de uma mulher após uma separação."Há muitas músicas que falam da sexualidade das mulheres, do direito ao prazer e ao orgasmo, e muitas canções fazem eco às lutas feministas da época e às lutas das mulheres negras por direitos civis", observa Leloup. O estilo musical também permite que a cultura afro-americana se popularize pelo mundo, um fenômeno que o jazz já havia iniciado e que o rap realiza até hoje. "Não costumamos associar a música disco à black music, mas ela está profundamente ligada ao soul, ao gospel e ao funk", destaca o curador da exposição. Uma mostra para todas as idadesO parisiense Hervé visitou a exposição com o companheiro Vincent. Para o casal, a mostra traz à tona lembranças de outros tempos. "É bem representativo desta época, os anos 1970, e nos faz pensar na nossa juventude, quando frequentávamos discotecas. A trilha sonora também é muito boa, dá vontade de dançar desde que a gente entra", diz.As gerações mais jovens também se divertem e aprendem com a exposição, acredita a jovem Emeline. "É interessante visualmente e também instrutivo. Aprendemos muitas coisas sobre os espaços da música disco, sobre as gerações com as quais não convivemos, mas que idealizamos", observa. "Há lindas decorações, com lindas músicas, que descobrimos ou redescobrimos, além de coisas do mundo atual que se inspira nessa geração", conclui.A exposição "Disco - I'm Coming Out" fica em cartaz até o dia 17 de agosto na Filarmônica de Paris.

Today on Too Opinionated we sit down with multi-Grammy winning keyboardist George Whitty to talk about his new musical endeavour WHAT!!!! In addition to playing live with the likes of The Brecker Brothers, Herbie Hancock, the late David Sanborn and Chaka Khan, as producer and session keyboardist, Whitty's credits include Santana's blockbuster Supernatural (with Dave Matthews), Celine Dion's Falling Into You and These Are Special Times, Hancock's The Imagine Project and hundreds of others. He has won four Grammys for his work on Chaka Khan's The Woman I Am, Randy Brecker's 34th and Lex, Michael Brecker's Tales From the Hudson and the Brecker Bros.' Out of the Loop. Amidst all the searing soul balladry, deep spirituality, insightful and impactful social consciousness and rousing funk on their infectious dual album In the World, legendary, world-wise cats George Whitty and Ellis Hall – collectively pooling their decades of musical passion as Whitty Hall Artistic Team, aka WHAT!!!! - infuse a beloved, inevitable R&B classic into the enticing mix. Driven by Hall's trademark rousing vocals, their fiery, tight groovin' and brass fired twist on Isaac Hayes' co-penned “I Thank You” takes the 1968 Sam & Dave classic to fresh, exciting heights. It's a way for the duo to express gratitude for their incredible individual careers and all the serendipitous events that led them to this epic moment. One of many potential hit singles and film licensing opportunities from the 10-track collection, “Die Living” is a simmering blues-soul anthem whose title came to Whitty out of the blue one day and led him to create a powerfully rhythmic gospel-influenced song with a bit of a raw front porch vibe. Hall's combination of vocals and organ drive the track, and he also adds various guitar tracks. In part inspired by a cool response Willie Nelson once gave a journalist who dared to ask if he would ever think of retiring, “Die Living” offers dynamic food for thought about wringing as much meaningful life experience we can during our time on this planet. WHAT!!!!'s new album In the World releases on February 14th, 2025. Want to watch: YouTube Meisterkhan Pod (Please Subscribe)

On this week's show, Extremely Musical Friend of the Pod (EMFOP) Chris Molanphy joins to memorialize pop's Renaissance Man, Quincy Jones, who passed away on November 3, 2024. The legendary producer worked with every star under the sun, including Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, and Chaka Khan, and created the best-selling album in history. (“Thriller,” maybe you've heard of it?) Then, the trio mulls over Conclave, a sumptuous new film by director Edward Berger (All Quiet on the Western Front) about what happens when the Pope dies.
