People from Cuba, say they are Cuban and they are dark-skinned also. Plus from the picture one can see they are "black" Duh :-)<br /><br />Something to think about..<br />T. M.

It's easily one of my favorite reissues in the past five years or so. <br /><br />If you can't get enough of them, Drag City released <a href="http://www.dragcity.com/products/spiritual-mental-physical" title="read about another Death release" rel="nofollow">Spiritual-Mental-Physical</a> earlier this year, a full album of reel-to-reel demo recordings. It's obviously not as cohesive or finished as the album, but there's some great stuff on it as well.mistermidwesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17991447839707804625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-56419309970725585912011-07-26T06:07:25.638-07:002011-07-26T06:07:25.638-07:00I would like to say that I knew this band way back...I would like to say that I knew this band way back in the day, but it was this NY Times article that clued me in:<br />http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/15/arts/music/15rubi.html<br /><br />But this blog is cooler than the NY TimesMr. Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00867900332056179691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-61669474645361856432011-07-26T06:04:55.719-07:002011-07-26T06:04:55.719-07:00YES!

I saw the reformed group with Bobbie Duncan played at a music festival here in Kentucky last summer and absolutely killed it. They seemed awestruck by their recent recognition as a great band and genuinely grateful for the opportunity to get up on stage and play almost 40 years later. All fun and all class, those fellas.danglevskynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081206974005845104.post-9976547361564870382011-07-26T03:47:35.074-07:002011-07-26T03:47:35.074-07:00Wow...that was really fricken' cool.
