This man needs little introduction, unless of course, you’re a robot or a klingon. For those of us who have a heart and have listened to the aching soul of Motown or Minnie Ripperton, you will know Leon Ware Soul Lover #1. On the RBMA couch this legend of soul music reveals what it was like writing hit songs for Berry Gordy, being in the studio with Marvin Gaye, and why there’s no difference between desire in the bedroom and desire in the church. Give thanks.

Leon Ware talks about his early days coming up in Detroit. As an early artist on legendary Motown Records, Leon talks about what made Motown such a great label, how evolution of the music industry has affected the relationships between artist and record labels. Other lecture topics cover how sexual innuendos take on many meanings throughout life, rap music, spiritual wealth, using criticism in a positive way, Leon’s work routine and his female CPU.
