He was behind Diana Ross' "I'm Coming Out", David Bowie's "Let's Dance", Madonna's "Like a Virgin" and many more. Now, he reflects on decades of hit writing, collaborating, and the meaning of music in his life. This interview originally aired in November 2011. Show notes

Is Public Radio trying to "Keep it real"?
Wow, as I was almost going to sleep listening to that Downton Abby interview, I was pleasantly surprised to hear such an NPR-ish podcast come with it talking about 40-Water. When people say public radio is stiff, white and liberal, it's a decided lack of this type of material that creates that public image. More exposure to American subcultures would make a 'Gargantic' difference in keeping what talk radio shows relevant and alive.
And pardon my hyperbolic deference to Downton Abby, I like it... not as much as Luther, but I understand Luther wasn't an Emmy winning, Producer's guild nominated show. But what do they know... I just like Luther and E-40 better. =) Keep up the good work, "Bullseye."
