Guilty as charged re Rolling Stones. Digging Jurassic 5; never listened to them. "I live in America but fuck this government." Timely!
Well done with the Jurassic 5, sir!👍👍

Saw that the Wu-tang Clan will be touring. Seems like the cheapest tickets are $300+. Given the economic uncertainty, that’s a bit steep for me.
Concur with ‘B&B’ assessment.
Thanks for all you do! :)
For your consideration:
Ozomatli - S/T (1998) :: An L.A. band with J5 pedigree, including Cut Chemist and Chali 2na. The Latin influences are so fresh and cool. Should be celebrated more.

Another victim of neglect is Freestyle Fellowship’s Inner City Griots (1993). Jazz loops and Hip Hop - ‘yes, please’.

Thanks for all you do, sir! BW always gets me listening to music that I’ve forgotten - so much music in the world.. This in addition to always introducing artists and/or albums that are new to me. Grateful!!!
Wishing you and yours all the best! :)
Love Ozomatli. I've seen them perform a number of times, including New Orleans Jazz Fest.
I went back to Black and Blue to give it another shot. Everyone’s entitled to their opinion. I’d still throw it on the heap with Emotional Rescue, Undercover, Dirty Work, and Satanic Majesties Request.
Tough crowd.
