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!
