25 years ago I got to listen 🎧 to Jagged Little Pill at Mandarette Cafe on Melrose as my buddy late Tim Thorney brought a young lady from Toronto called Alanis . Bowie and I at the time were trying to create Fox Records with 20th Century Fox and I told Alanis don’t know if it will happen it’s up to Bill Mechanic then President of 20th Century Films . My friends sat at dinner as I listened on headphones Alanis offered . My first impression “Holy F**k” , and I said “I’d sign you right now if we had our label but who did you meet that you liked?” , Alanis told me she was very impressed by Madonna at Maverick Records from a creative standpoint Madonna wants her to do things her way. Now I know Alanis doesn’t support this documentary Jagged, but it’s here and you can watch it digitally today on @tiff_net What happened to our record label ? Well Bill Mechanic told me Rupert Murdoch said no and that he has no time to run a label . I said “Bill who wants you to run a label you think Bowie can’t pickup the phone and get someone and his team is very smart as well” . It was not meant to be ! My dream of Bowie, George Michael and possibly Alanis went up in smoke and I stayed in my home in Beverly Hills mostly stoned for the next year in a depression @alanis @timthorney @20thcenturystudios #tiffdigital #tiff #tiff2020 #alanismorissette #jagged #jaggedlittlepill #recordlabel #astarisborn #music #25anniversary #jaggedtour #canadian #musician #timthorney #tour #film #documentary #streaming #instagood #bowie #georgemichael #instalike #likeforlikes #hbomax #hbo #instamusician #follow4followback #follow4like https://www.instagram.com/p/CT2TMhApMSa/?utm_medium=tumblr
