a can of worms - would those be polycheates or nematods?
Popularity? My understanding is that popularity waxes and wanes with no clear criteria. BC has great talent. Popularity? who is measuring?

This is a frustrating subject for all of his devoted fans. It has something to do with his independent attitude. However, the key moment was when MOWTR was released. I called a local radio station in NY to request a song and they didn't know it was out there. Someone said Come On By was a good choice and I agree. It just wasn't promoted enough. When he toured for that album and played NY, the Times gave him a good review but it was a small article and buried in the back of the paper. The reason he's not more known is only frustrating because it's hard to get info. about him here in the States, especially on the East Coast. I could go on much longer but I wll say that we have been blessed because he is still out there singing his heart out, sounds as good as ever and 2000 has the makings of a great year for BC and the GW!
