Also Hollywood Unsung is back with Sammy Davis Jr, Billy D Williams, Bernie Mac, Car Wash among others.

Can't wait for the Kid N' Play & DJ Quik episodes!! I still listen to those albums to this day, and Quik deserves more recognition for all he's done.

I guess TV ONE has a spy visiting the Org because they saw my cries for "Car Wash".

"Car Wash" is one of my favorite movies.I always wanted to see a behind-the-scenes look at the making of this film.Also want to know what happened to all the cast.

Question: Will Al B. narrate his own story? It's only right .

He doesn't narrate anymore, I don't think?

I wonder if Lonnie Simmons gave an interview for that Yarabrough & Peoples one?

Right!

I can already see next season's Unsung. Featuring Unsung artist such as Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, Mariah Carey and Ice Cube.

I am very interested in watching this one, "Don't Stop The Music" is one of my favorite songs ever!

Still holding out hope that, one day, I'll get a Bill Withers Unsung.

lol, looks as if that's the way they are headed. Can I get some unsung's on Cameo, The Jones Girls (I think they are even more unsung than The Emotions) Skyy, Starpoint, Mtume, Five Star, Switch,Bobby Caldwell, Loose Ends, Tom Browne. If I could get all these in one season I'd be content.

Lots of great suggestions here!

this season is weak

I'm still waiting for a Betty Davis episode! It probably won't ever happen but come on y'all, the woman is still alive!

Switch was somewhat featured in the DeBarge episode. I still wanna see Joe Tex. Te recently passed Ben E. King would be good also, he an Unsung 60s artist to say the least.

JOE TEX.

He probably fits more than Sammy Davis Jr. Sammy is not obscure at all and is fairly well documented. But maybe they should go with his sons' group The Reddings instead.

With the Hollywood version, I'd like to see That's My Mama, Julia (1960s TV show), Roscoe Lee Browne, Jester Hairston, & Jim Kelly

If they wanted obscure all around entertainer, could have done Pearl Bailey or Timmie Rodgers.

Is there a lot of footage of him? Whoopi Goldberg said she had a hard time finding film of Moms Mabley other than when she appeared on late 1960s TV shows. So she went with animation for part of her documentary. Kinda the same thing with the Sixto Rodriguez documentary movie.

Is there anyway to see unsung if you don't have tvone? I know sometimes they are uploaded on youtube..I would be very interested seeing the one on AL b Sure!

Oh and Kid N Play for sure.

Ike Turner was on the other day. It mentioned he played on some early B.B. King songs.
