@KeeWatts24 I was just thinking the same thing. Rod was the man back then. Still is probably. Amazing composer!!! This is by far one of my favorite Unsung episodes.

I'm speechless... I finally know where Rod Temperton came from. As a kid, I can remember reading all the credits on all my albums (especially MJ), seeing his name all over the place. I never knew he was a member & the master writer of Heatwave. That's good musical knowledge right there!

It is amazing how much tragedy this group endured. I have to say that I very much admired Johnnie's wife who stood by him under such circumstance. He had such a wonderful voice and his music is timeless.
