help and old codger out here. I have heard lots of bits of Franti's work as house music at shows, and he seemed really good people when I met him at the Gothic couple years back. I want to see what the rest is like. Also liked RATM in/on "This is What Democracy Looks Like." unfortunately, I can't make out the credits on my 13 in. telly. what is the what you need to know 101 and a place I can listen FREE without downloading some crap like kazza (still cleaning up after that mistake)? many advance thanks.
I first heard him 10 years back ..he was very good..lost track a bit (mmm OK a lot) but recently another person here http://www.hipforums.com/forums/member.php?userid=3512 reminded me of him maybe this will help http://www.thisisdemocracy.org/index2.html http://www.rapmusicville.com/Hypocrisy_Is_the_Greatest_Luxury_B000005HST.html http://www.amazon.com/o/dt/assoc/handle-buy-box=B000005HST http://www.seeklyrics.com/lyrics/Disposable-Heroes-Of-Hiphoprisy/Language-Of-Violence.html http://www.spearheadvibrations.com/michael.htm http://www.acroots.com/spearhead/heroes.html You might need just to do the scarey thing and buy the albums hehehehe.
good stuff..I'll be supporting this! and to think I though Charlie H was some uptigh jazz boy...at least he has most shows I've worked...
you can check out archive.org for some live spearhead...they have tons of shows. i saw them last march here in colorado(3/18) and they gave the best concert that i have ever seen. i have been a fan ever since. hope this helps peace joe
