Ben Greenman's new book Please Step Back looks like a biography of a 1970s soul and funk legend named Rock Foxx. Except Foxx is imaginary. Greenman wanted to release one of his fictional hero's songs, so he teamed up with a real-life legend -- Swamp Dogg. Greenman and Swamp Dogg met in the studio for the first time to tell Kurt about their unlikely collaboration.
