yeah...not many earth shattering reveletions for the fans in this one (hence why he was a poor chice for this series).

Still though....a lotta reeeeally cool vintage footage in there....worth watching for that alone.

But Peanut claimed that he help write 'One Nation Under A Groove', 'Flashlight' and other tunes.

That was a new one on me

I don't know... if he really wrote it, why couldn't he sue? I would believe it's too late to sue now. shrug

I had no idea that George had almost no money! sad

The recording industry is the damn Devil(glad they are losing millions to the internet and file sharing. Not like the artist were getting the money anyway!) -and fuck the judge who knew that something was not right in that contract but still decided against GC! mad

Drugs, bad choices and all, George should still be set finacially.

George will probably get what most artists get after suing for bad deals like get six or seven figure sums or whatnot.

SO FUCKING FUCKED UP what they did to him in the end...I mean we all kinda knew this by now but still...man..it was kinda sad. Still touring at 70, man should be resting up on a beach somewhere with a white sheet over him and you can see 'his big toes' like Bootsy Collins said. nod

It is sad, that is the music biz for you.
