I have to say that day after day and song after song you run deeper and higher in your understanding of the album. And the same I do. I hate Rap, I don't understand it and the most similar thing to it that I ever bought it is the LP "3 Feet Up and Rising" of De La Soul. More than twenty years ago... But I love Rocky Ground, more and more, and I think that Michelle Moore plays here the role of Clarence, her rap interlude is for me like the sax solo in Jungleland, The voice of an torn and wounded soul. Thanks again Jonathan. Luca
