Steve P. von Toto war Gast bei Brad Sundberg. Chicago 1945 wäre fast Teil der Songlist (Xcape) geworden.
Jedoch hat Steve abgelehnt, da er Remixe dieser Art ablehnt.
Zitat, mjjc, User der beim Seminar anwesend war:
"The sad thing is that everybody could have heard it by now if only
the record label had been willing to do right by it. Porcaro was
approached about the song for Xscape album, but he didn’t give his
permission to use it. “It seems songs are going straight to remix these
days,” he told us. It was obvious this approach didn’t sit well with
him. And while a fan in me would have loved to be able to buy the song
and have it in my collection, I felt nothing but respect for Porcaro’s
position. I thought that as a musician and a songwriter, he must
understand how much the integrity of a song means to the artist. And as a
colleague of Michael, he undoubtedly knows how much Michael cared about
his compositions. “Less is more” was a principle he, too, cited as very
important for MJ and Quincy. “Chicago 1945” is a great song that
certainly doesn’t need any “contemporizing” and deserves to be heard and
appreciated in its own right."
Auch diese Meinung teile ich.
