yeah, OK....so who's arguing with that? and what are you getting at? I don't think anyone on this list who speaks of influence is *denying* the roots of all music, if not humanity itself. Did I miss a point in this thread where someone implied that Africa is *not* the root? So often on this list we'll go over the true roots of the music we speak of. Of course we can trace it back to Africa. Yeah, OK, nuff respect...but so what? But 'cha know....before the drum circles in Africa, there were those groovy pre human amoeba jam sessions back in the protoplasm pools, y'know WAY before any humans were doing it.
