no, that dexy's review is all wrong. it should've gone like this:
32. there would be no place for kevin rowland in the neo-soul movement. he doesn't worship at the shrine of donny hathaway, and he believes that soul existed prior to 1972. he also knows that soul is sweaty, loud, passionate, and very often undignified, traits unbecoming to your average boho-soulster, with their fender rhodes and their chai lattes. his search today would turn up precious little. raphael saadiq. d'angelo. still, he (and i!) know they're out there, but where are they hiding?
