Big Bank Hank, Master Gee & Wonder Mike aka the Sugar Hill Gang want their royalties (though some may be Chic's, one might imagine) … Can't wait to start reading (the paperback edition of) Nile Rodgers' autobiography (or memoir) "Le freak (an upside down story of family, disco and destiny", incidentally! And re: the gang's nightmare contracts, see also Roger Paradiso's documentary "I want my name back!" (2011).
