    i dont know how anyone could remotely even think about this
    as a reality thread.

    if you caught five seconds of Fontella Bass and Jason Swinscoe
    (The Cinematic Orchestra) gig in london this week or the
    illuminating interview Fontella gave Robbie Vincent on
    http://www.jazzfm.com on Saturday morning about not only
    her career, but about where blues, jazz, rnb have come
    from & what they've had to overcome to achieve.

    A stunned Robbie to Fontella "You mean you couldnt go to
    the bathroom in the South even in the 60's?" Fontella:
    And still some places today (heard under her breath)

    i just got
    the new Electones single Summercloud (Inertia, Hefners label)
    it's as jazzy as :Lonnie Liston Smith and as acid as Fourtet.

    its wicked and i'll play it out next time i'm in the dj booth
    no matter what its called its good.

    it's not over till the fat lady gets paid, and as far
    as i can tell, a lotta moneys due in the post any day now.
