[kj] Youth

[sade1]

  Yes, I agree that Youf's bass was very good back then; I miss
it. I think it really fit in well. And Raven's needs to be mixed
louder!!
  Yesterday, Culture Club's "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?" was
on the radio and hearing that bass reminded me of Youth's reggae
influence. Also, The Clash's basslines also feel superb.

As the masters rot on walls
And the angels eat their grapes
I watched picasso 
visit the planet of the apes
