font class="post"1b,121b,121yes!b,121b,121rose royce was his pet project...b,121b,121it's funny, he is HOF material just for being the dude who had the balls to drag motown into the heavy funk/psych era with shit like Cloud 9 and I can't get next to you, but he also did shit like I heard it thru the grapevine and Ain't too proud to beg... b,121b,121but, yeah, he was the only dude at motown who really understood the late 60's on a musical level... he made records as freaky as george clinton, but on motown... i am sure berry gordy had a puzzled look on his face plenty of times hearing shit like the Undisputed Truth's 10 minute version of Ball of Confusion...b,121b,121but, yeah, a true fusking american legend...

I was really, really, hoping that I had misread the thread title when I clicked on it. His work with The Temptations alone is enough to solidify his status among the greats.b,121b,121RIP.
