You know, 329 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: but that that was one of the the things that 330 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: really hurt us, you know, your own kind because yeah, 331 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:57,119 Speaker 1: because he didn't believe or that song is super big, 332 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: like y'all couldn't have wrote it. Yeah, And from that 333 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: time on, you know, I guess we did every song 334 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 1: that you you hear, you know, the majority of songs 335 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: that you hear, and it's successful by the highest of brothers. Yeah, 336 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: h oh. Yes. We started Tea Neck Records with this 337 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: your thing, okay, Yeah, and you know we learned what 338 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: we were doing out there Motown and what they were doing. Uh, 339 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 1: that was it. You know, we figured, uh, that was 340 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: the way to go. And it turned out here we 341 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: could release what we wanted to release when we wanted 342 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: to release it. And then we then we started doing 343 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 1: our own tours. When indy that's a debate we have 344 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 1: here versus being independent. I mean Motown they were at 345 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: the time, you know they were, Yeah, it was an 346 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 1: indie that that had major But we talked about the 347 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: debate where there's major label versus independent. And I'm always 348 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: saying independent owning your stuff, that's the way to go, 349 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: right versus the mayne give me the money. I don't 350 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: want to work that hard. You got the money, go 351 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: independent from Motown and you took what you learned and 352 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 1: you put it to work. That's correct. And the record 353 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: that we have about now on the album we haven't 354 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: out now it is independent. Wow. Um, this is just 355 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 1: something I was trying to say earlier because I think 356 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: I've seen footage of you guys at Sam Cook one day, 357 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: and I think that what they were saying was they 358 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't let the brothers or the brothers and assistants on 359 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: one side of the club. So you and Sam Cook, 360 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: I think y'all got on the bus and then left. 361 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,239 Speaker 1: Oh I don't know about that. I think that, but 362 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: that's happened with someone else, Okay, but Sam Cook, I 363 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: think that happened with Jackie Wilson, Okay, okay, on the 364 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: two together. Yeah. So so what how how hard was 365 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 1: that back then because like, like you know, there was 366 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: a segregation, like how could you perform? You know, it 367 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: was very hard, but you know, ruarde young after age, 368 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 1: we didn't really understand it. You know, we didn't understand 369 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: that somebody would kill you or somebody you know, you know, 370 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: we always start run. You know, how old were you guys? 371 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: Exactly around I was abound eighteen, you know, kids yeah, yeah, 372 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: damn man, seventeen eighteen on the road. And that had 373 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 1: to be like a crazy because all the times that 374 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: black people were going through, and then people taking political 375 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 1: stances like Muhammad Ali and things like that, and then 376 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 1: and then Sam Cook and then like all these people 377 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: like I just always you know, it was crazy back then. 378 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: We didn't have television to get out of our message 379 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 1: or Sam Cook, you stopped them. It's like, give me 380 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: your ticket, don't you know? Wow, If you don't gonna 381 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: give me a ticket, put the chicken on. You know, 382 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 1: I'm saying Cook I said, was saying, yeah, he cleared, 383 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: he cleared. Woman. Oh my god, man, I'm so excited. 384 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: Wasn't taking anything off anyone. So that's probably one of 385 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: you know, wow. But after you guys decided to go independent, 386 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: you did go with major neighbors later on, Yeah, what 387 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: what what was those distributions for distributions so still owning 388 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: taking advantage of the machine at that point. That's all right, right, right, 389 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: that's all right because there were so many cases of 390 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: like people being taking an advantage of and and that time, 391 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: was that something you guys ever experienced?

But by way of technology 1131 01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:28,720 Speaker 1: and when they went into the MTV hip hop rap, 1132 01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:35,560 Speaker 1: those songs came back to us in a way I 1133 01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 1: would have never imagined, so that I love it when 1134 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:43,560 Speaker 1: you're calling me a big pop or today was a 1135 01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:45,800 Speaker 1: good day. I didn't have to use my AK or 1136 01:19:46,160 --> 01:19:48,240 Speaker 1: see you went to crossroads and that was to make 1137 01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:52,600 Speaker 1: me say it again. Those songs came back in a 1138 01:19:52,680 --> 01:19:57,559 Speaker 1: way that I would have never imagined, so that Okay, 1139 01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,400 Speaker 1: we may have done double platinum as the Eyes Brothers, 1140 01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:03,200 Speaker 1: but if when you put all the other stuff on top, 1141 01:20:03,800 --> 01:20:07,519 Speaker 1: it was probably like four or five million, you know 1142 01:20:07,880 --> 01:20:12,719 Speaker 1: sales per album because of those songs, and um, because 1143 01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:14,840 Speaker 1: they say that that you know albums are you talking 1144 01:20:14,840 --> 01:20:19,840 Speaker 1: about her?

You got a couple more questions. Um, 1166 01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:43,800 Speaker 1: analog or digital? M h wow, both of them. I 1167 01:22:43,880 --> 01:22:50,120 Speaker 1: think in some ways the analog may have a warmer sound. Uh, 1168 01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:55,920 Speaker 1: Digital may have a somewhat clearer cleaner, right, cleaner is 1169 01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:58,840 Speaker 1: that that's not always good? No, he's so clean, right, 1170 01:22:58,960 --> 01:23:01,400 Speaker 1: it's not always So you're going analog. If you're going analog, 1171 01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:07,080 Speaker 1: take a shot for that. It's your thing. But I 1172 01:23:07,200 --> 01:23:10,000 Speaker 1: love analog. I love the rails when you had to 1173 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:12,320 Speaker 1: walk around with the reels and it felt like he 1174 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:15,120 Speaker 1: was hard human being and like you know what I'm saying, 1175 01:23:15,160 --> 01:23:17,960 Speaker 1: Like I love because that's the dirty sound came out 1176 01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:22,679 Speaker 1: like when but digital it's almost like it's clean before 1177 01:23:22,720 --> 01:23:26,040 Speaker 1: the evening, like you know what I mean, Like you guys, 1178 01:23:26,080 --> 01:23:28,960 Speaker 1: I love that. We mentioned on Drink Chance but DJ 1179 01:23:29,200 --> 01:23:31,400 Speaker 1: Quick he had he did an interview, um I think 1180 01:23:31,439 --> 01:23:34,320 Speaker 1: with Televequali and he mentioned that he felt an analog 1181 01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:37,519 Speaker 1: picked up the energy from the room. Oh yeah, I 1182 01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:40,280 Speaker 1: agree with that. Keller used to put a nickel on 1183 01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:50,320 Speaker 1: uh turntable to get that. That's that DJ ship. Let's 1184 01:23:51,439 --> 01:23:57,720 Speaker 1: all right, soul training or American band standing. So you're 1185 01:23:57,760 --> 01:24:02,240 Speaker 1: saying so strange too, I'm good. I'm with the Mike 1186 01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:11,720 Speaker 1: Tyson or Ali Ali. We haven't drank, drank that's the 1187 01:24:11,800 --> 01:24:14,160 Speaker 1: last one you got. We got the last one. This 1188 01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:17,120 Speaker 1: is the last one. Gotta do the last one, the 1189 01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:20,240 Speaker 1: last one that everyone thinks this is everyone thinks the 1190 01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:22,640 Speaker 1: whole game is a trick question, but it kind of is, 1191 01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:25,000 Speaker 1: but it isn't. It's always meant to let let the 1192 01:24:25,160 --> 01:24:28,120 Speaker 1: artists loosen up. You know. We do this game to 1193 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:30,320 Speaker 1: let the artists loosen up so they can start saying things. 1194 01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:34,479 Speaker 1: But pay homage that we're talking about. But really, this 1195 01:24:34,640 --> 01:24:37,320 Speaker 1: is the only to me, it's not a trick question. 1196 01:24:37,360 --> 01:24:39,680 Speaker 1: That that is a trick question. It's the last one. 1197 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:46,840 Speaker 1: It's loyalty or respect. Loyalty is gonna have respect in it, 1198 01:24:48,240 --> 01:24:50,519 Speaker 1: and respects you're gonna have loyalty in it. That's what. 1199 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:54,679 Speaker 1: We can't really separate the two. They'll be they'll be together. 1200 01:24:55,960 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 1: You know, they're they're intertwined. You know, if you have respect, 1201 01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:03,880 Speaker 1: you're going to have loyalty. And how can you have loyalty? Whatever? 1202 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:08,040 Speaker 1: Was having respect? That's perfect. Wait, there's two people here, Okay, 1203 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:12,479 Speaker 1: well I don't I don't use that same man. Ok 1204 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:21,360 Speaker 1: We gotta drink.

You could easily be 1315 01:32:43,600 --> 01:32:46,599 Speaker 1: a vocalist and have writers writing your vocals and have producers. 1316 01:32:47,520 --> 01:32:51,560 Speaker 1: They are writing the music and the vocals and performing. 1317 01:32:52,200 --> 01:33:00,920 Speaker 1: You're right, that is incredible, That's super incredible.

And you know, you you 1325 01:33:46,520 --> 01:33:50,040 Speaker 1: really we really don't do one without doing the other, 1326 01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:54,880 Speaker 1: but being conscious of the other. You know, so that um, 1327 01:33:55,120 --> 01:33:57,000 Speaker 1: as you load the gun, you want to shoot it. Hey, 1328 01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:02,400 Speaker 1: you know says that say like footsteps in the dark. 1329 01:34:02,520 --> 01:34:09,360 Speaker 1: When it was first recorded drums, bass one keyboard and 1330 01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:14,200 Speaker 1: one guitar, okay, And the first song that was performed 1331 01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:19,240 Speaker 1: vocally Footsteps in the Dark. And once the vocal went 1332 01:34:19,320 --> 01:34:21,640 Speaker 1: on and the other vocals went on, then you can 1333 01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:25,560 Speaker 1: hear the other musical parts to be added to it. 1334 01:34:26,320 --> 01:34:30,240 Speaker 1: And by the time you finished with it, it's like 1335 01:34:30,680 --> 01:34:34,559 Speaker 1: glorious technicolor and you have you know, you have the lyric, 1336 01:34:35,000 --> 01:34:37,400 Speaker 1: you have the harmonies, you know, you have all the 1337 01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:41,840 Speaker 1: things that make up a record. By the time you finish. 1338 01:34:42,120 --> 01:34:44,640 Speaker 1: You don't necessarily have that when you begin, you just 1339 01:34:44,760 --> 01:34:49,800 Speaker 1: at the beginning. So that yeah, so by the time 1340 01:34:49,880 --> 01:34:52,360 Speaker 1: we get to, like the song is finish, it's like, man, 1341 01:34:52,479 --> 01:34:55,960 Speaker 1: that bad points out of here, you know, for us 1342 01:34:56,040 --> 01:34:58,840 Speaker 1: to know that before it comes out. So that's sort 1343 01:34:58,880 --> 01:35:00,519 Speaker 1: of like the way that goes.
