I dunno, I could see it going either way as far as those two artists, and can't disparage people for liking one over the other. Fats is 50s do-wop, George is 70s funk. Some like one, some like the other, some like both. Some do-wop music I truly appreciate, but Fats wasn't a crucial artist in that genre, at least for me, anyway. But, yeah, to like an artist for race (or pedigree, as it were), is beyond silly. The music is what counts. - jt <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
