Throughout music history, bands have been formed by members who were friends or perhaps created by ambitious producers looking for the next Big Sensation. On the other hand, there are also bands that were born out of cartoons, television programs, and movies. They generally only performed as musical acts on the screen yet achieved the success of a traditional group by releasing records and videos, blurring the lines between real and fiction. While they may not have received major awards or recognition, real people did lend their voices to these pieces of vinyl.

Well, since YOU cowardly & gutlessly avoid posting YOUR opinion after mentioning the topic...
I’ve watched the documentary and note HB was married 6-7 times - he’s certainly not the most honorable human being.
Additionally, CK was spot-on with her candid assessments of the film and background.
Since you seemed to have more knowledge, I simply asked a question after watching the videos a while back that came up on my feed after watching the wrecking crew documentary on YouTube. Calling me “cowardly” for asking a question, while not taking any side mind you, seems a bit harsh. Sorry I bothered to ask...sheesh.

WRONG!
Actually, I did include my opinion in my post. Sheesh, indeed!
Actually, the Banana Splits theme song was written about a decade BEFORE Marley wrote Buffalo Soldiers.
So it’s actually Marley who should have been sued. But no suit ever happened, as far as I know.
Don’t bother. He’s an ahole.
Why don’t you just make 10 the loudest?. But this one goes to 11!!
I liked Power Station. Mostly because of Robert Palmer.
I liked Robert Palmer. And he was better without Duran Duran. Although their absolutely terrible cover of Get It On triggered MTV to put the real one on high rotation in their Closet Classics show, which introduced me to TRex, a band I still love. So Power Station wasn’t all bad.
Oh yeah, good post, that’s a classic story.
