Kevin!

Surely you must have confused Last Poets with Watts Prophets. Last Poets
formed in Harlem, NYC in '69. Watts Prophets on the other hand met in LA
after the riots and started gigging as the Watts Prophets in '70. Their
only released LP "Rappin' Black in a White World" came '72. Check out the
interview in Brian Cross' "It's Not About a Salary".
