Amazing documentary on Nile Rodgers

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVmAXWZu_PQ

I've always enjoyed his productions, but watching this gave me chills, since I realized recently that some of the songs I've loved all my life happened to be his productions, or had that familiar feel to them. I hope his health is better these days too.

Great documentary--I really enjoyed watching a while back. Now, I gotta find time to read his book I bought last year... lol

I want his book too! I've always been a fan of his work, but feel I'm rediscovering too now and realize songs I've been hooked on the most putting on repeat by other artists were his productions too!

Think he'll tour North America?

I just finished his book today after having it for over two months from the library. It really is a gripping, great autobiography. I was amazed by his producing talent on so many songs that I've liked over the years, and didn't know it was due to Nile. It's definitely a must read.
