Here, My Dear

Mm-hmm.

Remember, uh, it was, uh, Here, My Dear.

Mm-hmm.

And you remember that he lost that album, and he lost...

He, he, he, he wrote his life's work.

He wrote his opus, and he gave it to her.

That's why it's called Here, My Dear.

To me, this is that book.

It's my, it's my opus, my love letter to him.

Remember, um, Marvin Gaye had that album, um, Here, My Dear?

Yep.

And he lost it in a, and remember he had to write this album, and he gave it to his ex-wife in a divorce-

Yep

... settlement, and it was his greatest work? This feels like that to me.

What do you want people to take from this book?

Marvin Gaye wrote an album called Here, My Dear.

And it was an album where he lost a divorce settlement.

And so he had to give the album to his wife, his ex-wife.

And he could have wrote anything, but he wrote his best work.

This to me is akin to that in that this is a conversation and my observations about a man who I could never actually have that conversation with.

But he would have never known that because we would have never had that level of emotional conversation.

And so this is like Marvin Gaye's Hear My Dear.

This is my...

I got to tell a chance.

Okay.

1978, Hear My Dear Marvin Gaye.

So as you can tell, our late 70s, we need to kind of pick it up.

Yeah, we got to.

Typical was the name of the track from Shape the Future.

Marvin Gaye in there from Hear My Dear and Funky Space Reincarnation.

And we had Original Coffee in there with Oviso.
