They were very popular back in the day.
Crimson and Clover was first thing that popped into my head.

Unbelievable backstory about him and the Detroit mob
and how shady the radio business was back then.
"Me,the Mob and Music"
Would make for a great movie IMO.

Saw them live at the Concord Hotel in Kiamesha Lake NY 1970. My dad worked there and got me tickets. Peace love and happiness.

It wasn't just James. Steve Marriott of The Small Faces attended a business meeting in the '80s trying to get his unpaid royalties. He was told by a member of the Gotti mafia family that if he continued to demand his royalties, he would be killed.
Marriott later died in a house fire.
