oh maaaaaahn! get a clue!! the reason why craig, et al. were overlooked was because the style of music was not popular at the time, not the color of their skin. look at breakdance music. that was pretty popular in '83 and '84. hell, i even took breakdancing classes!!! race arguments are soooooo weak. peace... prymal ======== Prymal primal@interaccess.com http://www.interaccess.com/primal/ ======== A NEW JANUARY - CD debut, "Patchwork Shadows" electronic dance with a driving edge http://www.interaccess.com/primal/january/ ======== add some spice to your christ...necco wafers!
