I have zero musical talent. However, I have had many clients with a great deal of talent. One of them, Miles Davis, said the best of the “brothers” was Stanley Clarke and the best “white guy” was Charlie Haden. He also said “the Beatle guy” was very, very good.
I had never heard of Haden and bought an album that he had recorded with his small ensemble. Not my style. Less than a year later though, his ex-wife hired me to represent her to contest his attempt to reduce child and spousal support. (They had triplet daughters, one if whom later married Jack Black.)
His effort was not successful and he was ordered to pay me attorneys’ fees in six installments. On the back of each check, where I would have to endorse it, he wrote a less than friendly note.
It was not the first or last time that someone did that. As long as the check didn’t bounce, it never bothered me.
