Hmm, got a good review on salon.com, but, they were taking about how he was
getting back his 'street creed'. Not that he really needed it. So you may
his usual psudonym stuff, but, do pick up his 'Lone Ranger' stuff, got a
12" when in London in '98 that was more reminicent of his Quest stuff, and
still love the Body Rock single from Rawkus.
