That CBS story was great, good to see behind the scenes of who is curating his legacy, crazy that he had over 8,000 songs in the vault when he died.

Very curious to see this, Mike Judge covered a little of the Minneapolis scene with his Tales From the Tour Bus episode about Morris Day & The Time, but this seems much more in depth
