STeVE's wiki entry. Mentions his degree in mass communications, and that he was born in '53. At first I thought Hoofy's page was written by, well, Hoofy, but then it goes on to say he was fired by MCA. I doubt STeVE would highlight that. Someone should edit the entry to provide details about why STeVE was fired.

Hasn't it been messed with to a point where it can't be played with anymore or something?

Nope. It can still be futzed with. Got fixed real quick, though.

Every time I read about "Cecilia Ann" I get pissed. SteVE would have blown a gasket if someone from Rhino Records put some bullshit their staff recorded in 1991 on a "Nuggets" CD.

There's an unsolved mystery surrounding HooFy's theft of the MCA tapes. MCA cared enough to get the FBI involved but took it no further than recovering their tapes. Why did MCA choose simply to fire STeVE and not press charges? Whose dick at MCA did HooFy suck in order to avoid prosecution and prison? One thing for certain, if Becker and Fagen had known the missing Aja tapes were in STeVE's basement, they would have kicked his ass. At least then STeVE would have an interesting, true story to tell.

I believe someone explained why it was hushed up but I don't wanna step on any toes and poat a half-remembered theory.

If MCA had pressed charges, there would have been reports about what had actually disappeared from the MCA vaults. Consider how much time it took to hear about what was actually lost in the 2008 fire, as they didn't want the artists to hear about it and ask for some form of settlement. And it could well be that Hoffman wasn't the only tape thief in the vaults. Pressing charges would have made the case go public in a big way, and it would have ultimately exposed how careless MCA was in those days, especially if it turned out Hoffman hadn't taken some of the master tapes that were reported missing. It wouldn't have shown the company in a good light.

Wasn't MCA run by actual organized crime?
