Now U sound like a smart cat, cuz i dont particulary think too much of 
the music that these cats are putting out
nowadays!  This is just me tho........I cant flame a cat when hes
right(or whether right or wrong, if he has the same sentiments as I)

Bola, surprised me, and I tell ya its quite nice........in a general
way-----I have been listening to the song Wholbo for the last 6 days
now(what a cut, one of the reflective pieces----ouch!)   Actually, I
might have, no I did, make a hasty decision about John Beltrans new
release on Transmat(under his Indio guise).  I have been listening to it
for about three days straight, and it will prolly C 6!

A word of advice, cuz I am always chiming about new music doesnt compare
with the old, go back and get some of those rare gems, such as Artifical
Intelligence, I and II(i dont have em yet, but I am trying real
hard)..........
That ancient B12 aint no punk, the David Morely aint no punk, let us
see, Global Communications Remotion----AINT NO PUNK Chief!  And if U
dont have that old JB stuff like 10 Days of Blue or Placid Angels---man,
oh man----no wonder U're wasting all of your time with this contemporary
shit(not for all of it, cuz i cant judge what I havent
heard)...................

Forget about it Bloke, and if Ya cant find the JB stuff and U dont have
it, I would be more than happy to hit ya up with a compilation!

Hk!
