Despite the fact that it's my 50th birthday today, and that I wasn't the biggest fan of P.E. AND that I grew up in Queens, NY which was a mecca or I guess you could call it one of the birthplaces of modern urban rap, which made my listening to "New Wave" and that radio station WLIR all the weirder, (how's this for the run-on sentence of the week?....it's my birthday I can run on if I want to) I now listen to P.E. and all the other rap groups from the early 80's with the same enthusiasm I had for the Eurythmics and their style back in the day.
Like the Punks and later the New Wavers, the Sugar Hill Gang and P.E. and (we have reached the limit of the artists in this field I can name without google) the rest were musical pioneers who had to INVENT OR REPURPOSE TECHNOLOGY to create the unique sounds that defined the genre. That right there is always something that gets my respect and my attention.
