   True, and the Truth does set one free, except with KJ it also left them alone and 
outside the industry. More than anything i felt it was theattitude behind his "verdict" 
statement that i think hurt the band, but i unfortunately i sacrificed clarity for some 
brevity/wit-value. 
   I think if they (read, Jaz) just 'got along' with others at this point it would help the 
whole process, artistically and commercially. But yeah, back in the 80s (and 90s, 
2000s, etc) it prolly helped "done them in" and left them quite,*ahem* "outside the gate"*ahem-ahem-coughcough!*

Yeah but if he hates the guy's music then he's only being honest...Youth
and Jaz are probably very well off, not sure about the rest of them, but
I'd hope that playing good gigs is more important than commerial success.
Courting that back in the 80s helped fuck the band and produced an album
that only Peace can stand ;)
