Here's something interesting. I just heard about this band for the first time yesterday. Maybe some of you guys know them:



The Bellrays

They've been described as Aretha Franklin (classic afro wearin' Aretha) fronting the MC5. http://www.geocities.com/...dium/9475/

That description is right. I've seen this band twice out here in L.A. and they kick ass live!

Yeah, that's not their real website. Their official one is under construction: http://www.thebellrays.com/ I read in the latest issue of Alternative Press that they have a new album coming out later this year. Try their record label for more info: http://www.alternativeten...mZBjljo1nQ

Nah, hate to say, no one has mentioned Dez, except 4 u. I don't believe no one has mentioned my other boy either, Jessie. Truthfully, those 2 cats, Dez and Jessie would have been on my list, but because I have named MY cats on my lists a few times already on past threads, Dez and Jessie included, didn't do it this time. Just responding to other folks posts. Good call though, Dez was pivitol!

From what I've heard, musically, nah, not really. But I'll always dig Dez.

blackguitaristz and The Audience riding in the back of the limo.

blackguitaristz: Man, I thought the limo was going to be siver with gold trim? (pause) And where is the shag on the floor? Man, let's not use this limo service again.
The Audience: Be cool, Chris. I have a headache.
blackguitaristz: Hey, I hope Funk Mistress is going to be there. I had Ryan give her front row seats. You think she'll show? I want, no, I NEED to be able to see her in the front from the stage.
The Audience: (shakes his head) Chris, you're hopeless.


I'll be there, and you better make me shake it till this catsuit's wet! whip

Ooh,shit. That suit is so....snug and..... fitting.

Forever, player. Just a little friendly "tag your it" thing. Honestly though, just between u and me. (whispers) I think the girl is bad! Bad meaning "hot". Don't tell nobody though, cool?

Every once in a blue moon, I'll see a pic, read a review, hear some samples and decide "I really need to get this band's CD right now!" This is one of those times.

I assume you already know about "Mother's Finest". But here in Philly we have "Moses Magnum" and "When Worlds Collide", both are all black hard rock bands fronted by fine black females.Santi White you fine too though we have yet to meet in person. Now SquarePeg don't you wish you were here?
