Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

I've seen them in concert with Fishbone twice, including once with Red Hot Chili Peppers at Lollapalooza.
I got to meet the guitarist Vernon Reid in LA in the early 80s...nice guy and hell of a guitar player...very bright guy.
Crazy good lyrics and message in that song. Love the singers vocals.

If youre into longer instrumental songs, a great band is We Lost The Sea.

They have 2 albums on Spotify and they are so freaking good. Stories behind each one.

They have a new album coming out on the 2nd and I cant wait.
 
Great video, even better lyrics!



Dear friend
If you wanna feel better
Don't let the devil make you toss this letter
If you've been crossed up by hoodoo voodoo
A wizard or the lizard
If you've got family trouble
Man trouble, woman trouble
No light through the tunnel
If you're lookin' for a true friend, or a true lover
Or if you've been livin' undercover
Well, I'm comin' to your town
I'll break it all down
And help you with all of this
I'm lookin' to help you find bliss
One day, one way, can't miss
I'm here to tear all the walls down
Doesn't matter if it's a large town or a small town
Just like Joshua and the fabled walls of Jericho
I'm here to tear down the institution
God spoke to me. Said, "Listen to me
I anoint you with the power that'll get 'em all movin'"
You're agitated, you're prayed and meditated
You're concentrated on gettin' elevated
By sundown Monday
You who come will be blessed with a big money blessing
You will be doubted by all the unbelievers
And all the friends I'm addressin'
But you must tell seven friends
You must first bring seven friends
And don't be selfish and keep this all to yourself
And don't eat shellfish
Hate is trying to take someone else's love for yourself
But I'm here to tell you that love is trying to help someone else
I realize that you have tried and tried
And are just about ready to give up
But I got good news for you
God has spoken to my mind and told me to
Tell you to get moving in the right direction for a change
I'm gonna put you in the fast lane
You need to see me right away so I can fix this
You need to see me right away
You need to see me right away so I can fix this
You need to see me right about now
God of seven
Open up the windows of heaven
And pour out a rich and mighty blessing
Not on his town or her town, but your town
Are you ready for the message?
I have a special financial blessing that
Once I have placed in your hand
I want you to begin using this blessing
On the very first day that you can
And if you are suffering a strange sickness
Or someone is blocking up all of your success
You need to see me right away so I can fix this
Signed sincerely
Yours in faith, love, and peace

That's an awesome song! I've never heard it before. Adding it to my Apple Music library now.
