I'm sad to share that Jellybean Johnson, founding member and drummer of The Time, has passed away. He was an innovator of the Minneapolis Sound, appeared in 'Purple Rain,' and produced Janet Jackson's "Black Cat." He died suddenly Friday night at 69.

Happy Birthday to the one and only Angelo Moore. He is one person that the mold was broken after he appeared. Mr Moore, a born entertainer, a born messenger and a born bringer of joy to all. an outspoken person for fairness and justice to all those who suffer from the perils of life.

Been listening to a lot of D'Angelo since we heard the news yesterday. I've been going back to this clip regularly since I discovered it a decade ago.
