Why is it that in America, the only time I ever here music I listen to in
the mass media, its always in the back of an advertisement? Or in the
background of some cheezy news show intro? I guess I can understand movie
soundtracks, but the other? Its not that I want to start hearing Mama Oliver
on top 40 stations, but what is it about AJ that makes it so suitable for
selling things? Gives me pause.

By now most of you have probably seen the new TV ad campaign from Lexus with
Mama Oliver's Eastwest Stoned Together. A great song, despite it's being on
every other compilation for a while there (though it still lags Boozoo
Bajou's Night over Manaus & Under My Sensi, and Thievery's Lebanese Blonde).
Supposedly Mama Oliver released another single entitled I Need No Lover.
I've never run across it, or seen it on any compilations. Anyone know where
it can be found?
Anything else on this group? I'd love to hear more from them.
Dave
