Now I lived in Memphis for 6 years(94-2000)and HOW MANY TIMES I brought up ARTHUR LEE's NAME and NOBODY BUT NOBODY knew who the heck I was talking about! I 'tried' getting some info on his dad, whom I believe was a coronet player. Again, zero! Well that should tell one how STAX was treated as one of the first independent record companies that folded by January 1974. Is that no one has taken notice where Arthur was from originally??!! Sure he was a kid when he split with his mom to Calif, but still in all... One thing is amazing too is that very few black people know who he is either. Though I have turned so many people on to Love and Arthur's music. Then they say something, wow I can see where somebody like LENNY KRAVITZ took his style from and things like that! When someone defies category or genre, then labels cant be automatically asserted and guess what...fill in the blanks....till the next.... [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
