The Roots... I don't know, I worship those guys. Quest is on my short list of dudes I'd kill to have a beer with. And when I read his book he talks about what you already mentioned - that basically Fallon has allowed The Roots to do the SY thing, which is have the freedom to do whatever the F they want. And let's be straight: they've done some very interesting things since (like an album w/ John Legend... or Elvis Costello... or Then You Shoot, etc).
Also something to think about: Fallon convinced ATCQ to come on his show for the first time in over 15 years. This immediately led to the new album. I'd be willing to bet that The Roots (or at least Questlove) had a hand in that.
