Mr. German has added a page to his site looking back at 1978.

“What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,” he says. “All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they’re happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can’t tell one note from another.” - Keef

ditto, great link indeed

i especially enjoyed the 2 interview videos.  its ashame they are blurey.  what amazes me is how they filled stadiums back in the late 70's and for the bb tour they had trouble filling the second giants stadium show-even with the advances of a better stage, nice big video screens, fireworks and much much better sound.


Are you fucking serious?
