THE UNITED SOUND OF MUSIC!
It was a beautiful Sunday and so after a wonderful Sunday service I headed over to the United Sound Systems Studios located at 5840 Second Ave. in the midtown area of the city for the historical marker celebration and dedication at the legendary studio that was used by some of the most influential and talented musicians to ever touch a microphone or instrument. The event hosted by current owner and manager of the studio, Danielle Scott along with her team opened the doors to the media and public so that they can tour the studio and meet with some of the spouses and children to the entertainers that made this a historical building. In attendance was Kiko Davis, wife to the late Don Davis, producer and entrepreneur and also the former owner of the studio, Brenda Wilson daughter of Jackie Wilson, Cheryl Ruffin daughter of David Ruffin, Kecalf Franklin son of Aretha Franklin, Eddina Camille daughter of Edward Holland of the famed Holland-Dozier-Holland writing team, Billy Davis who mentored and taught Jimi Hendrix to play guitar, just to name a few of the people there to help in the marker dedication. It was truly a good educational experience. Feel free to stop by and take advantage of a tour of the historical studio for a fee of ten dollars. Tell them THE REEL HUSTLER sent you...LOL!
This is my life, the life of THE REEL HUSTLER!!!
