{"title":"Roger","description":"\u003cp\u003eRoger Troutman was an American singer, songwriter, and producer, known for his distinctive use of the talk box in funk and R\u0026amp;B music. He was a key figure in the band Zapp, which had a significant impact on the development of the electronic funk genre in the 1980s. Troutman's use of the talk box, a device that modulates the voice to create a robotic sound, became his signature sound, influencing later artists such as Daft Punk and Bruno Mars. His most influential works include hits like \"More Bounce to the Ounce\" and \"Computer Love\".\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"i-heard-it-through-the-grapevine-part-i-part-ii-1","title":"I Heard It Through The Grapevine (Part I)\/ (Part II)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original Warner\/Reprise factory sleeve.
