hey chris-

first off, congratulations on all the press you've been getting. well
deserved for OM, cuz the releases are good! and thanks for the help
you've been giving us on our first release.

agreed about this top ten thing, but have you checked out the toni
braxton record? i think the production on that record is all that. its
pop, but the bottom end is bumpin'.

lest we forget how little soul was in the music on the airwaves in the
1980s...
