Well I guess this post is the equivalent of suicide cause they ar going to murder you for this post. I happen to think that D'angelo's alblum is outstanding, but that doesn't mean that I am at all satisfied with the status quo-with the soulaquarians vibe that has been brewing-quest makes a comment in his interview with D about evryone getting together and forming some type of soul "syndicate" and like you I hope that never happens, cause you're going have the "puffy" effect and everything that comes out of this little click will sound the same and we will lose the only real soul music that's being put out. one thing D's alblum does do a good job of is making you ready for the third one.-and to all the other okayplayer out there, have mercy on him for he know's not what he does.<P>"there is no off position on the genius switch!"-David Letterman
