Glamorous Life - Day 134: Photography/Travel Blog~Flickr~Twittervia Wiki:Sheila Escovedo is the daughter of percussionist Pete Escovedo, with whom she frequently performs. Sheila E’s uncle is Alejandro Escovedo, formerly with Delphine Neid’s first-wave punk rock group The Nuns, Rank and File and The True Believers, followed by a solo career. The late Tito Puente was Escovedo’s godfather. She is also niece to Javier Escovedo, founder of seminal San Diego punk act, The Zeros. Another uncle, Mario Escovedo, fronted long-running indie rockers, The Dragons. Escovedo is of Mexican, African American, and Creole heritage. Coke Escovedo who was in Santana and formed the band Azteca was also her uncle. She made her recording debut with jazz bassist Alphonso Johnson, “Yesterday’s Dream” (1976). She is a drummer and percussionist and also plays violin and guitar. She had also played with George Duke, Lionel Richie, Marvin Gaye, Herbie Hancock, and Diana Ross by the time she was in her early twenties. Prince met Sheila at a concert in the early 1980s, when she was performing with her father. After the show, he met her and told her that he and his bassist “were just fighting about which one of us would be the first to be your husband”. He also prophetically vowed that one day she would join his band. The two would eventually join forces during the Purple Rain recording sessions. She provided vocals on the Prince “Let’s Go Crazy” B-side single “Erotic City” in 1983/84. Though taken under Prince’s wing, she proved to be a successful artist in her own right. In 1984 she scored hits with “The Glamorous Life” (Hot 100 #7, and regarded as something of an ’80s classic), and “The Belle Of St. Mark” (#34). She opened for the Purple Rain tour and there was a segment where she would have a man called up on stage and seated in a chair while she sang and teased him (similarly mirrored by Janet in her Velvet Rope Tour:Rope Burn.) Around the same time, the collaborating duo began a brief romantic relationship, while Prince was still seeing Susannah Melvoin, twin sister Revolution band member Wendy Melvoin.

This is one one of my favorite stories ever! It never gets old!
so the story goes…
Isaac Hayes was at the piano with David Porter. They’re trying to write a song for Sam and Dave who just rolled into Stax (via Atlantic’s Jerry Wexler) and aint really feelin the whole south vibe.
They seem to be gaining momentum when David excuses himself to use the mens room. At some point Isaac hit’s a groove that they suddenly all dig. He screams to David Porter that he needs to hurry up, that he’s almost got it. He just needs that “something” else. David Porter is frustrated with all the yelling and yells back “Hold on, I’m comin” and Isaac has a fit and yell’s THATS IT WE GOT IT. The rest is histroy. Believe it or not:)

The website of French TV station Canal + is playing host to a video of the entire Cannes Film Festival opening ceremony. Easily the most exciting section is a long montage of clips from different films that will be playing there over the next couple of weeks though you might enjoy the rest, perhaps most particularly Bryan Ferry’s tidy performance of She.
The film clips section starts at around the 15 minutes and 40 seconds mark, and lasts for seven minutes or so. Most films get a 15 to 30 second showcase, which might not seem like much, though in many cases this is the first footage of the films to have turned up online at all. While I found a lot of the material quite exciting none of it compared to the giddiness I have for the 18 seconds of The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. The clip focuses on Heath Ledger, dressed in the costume shown in the picture at the head of this post, and addressing the audience of the traveling Imaginarium. I want to see this film right now.
As Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds is gearing up to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, the soundtrack listing has been uploaded to the fest’s press site, giving us a preview of the songs from the film. Anyone who has ever seen a Tarantino film knows, the music that Quentin chooses is a huge part of the overall film. Check out the full listing here .via www.slashfilm.com
