The Rock Band That Redefined the Genre (And Why They Belong in the Hall of Fame) Think Living Colour is just "Cult of Personality"? Think again. In this episode, we sit down with author Preston Frazier to dive deep into his explosive new book, Shade of Living Color. We break down the incredible highs, the devastating 90s breakup, and the undeniable legacy of a band that reclaimed Black participation in rock and roll. From Mick Jagger’s secret weapon role in their early success to the truth behind those Corey Glover rumors, we’re unpacking the full, unfiltered history of one of rock’s most innovative forces.

What We Discuss in This Episode: The Jagger Factor: How Mick Jagger co-produced Vivid and championed the band. The 90s Breakup & Reunion: What really happened when the contracts ended? Track-by-Track Breakdown: Reassessing classics like "Type," "Open Letter to a Landlord," and "Glamour Boys." The Hall of Fame Debate: Does a smaller catalog mean they don't belong in Cleveland? (We beg to differ). Myth-Busting: Is Corey Glover actually related to Danny Glover? (The answer might surprise you). What’s Next: A sneak peek at Preston’s upcoming Steely Dan project, Stealing Dan.
