Maybe it's just a pretty car ad? You could ask anyone in my Auburn trailer park about TV car ads, and I'll bet they know more about them than you do. TV ads are the popular entertainment of our time, they're created to amuse ordinary working slobs.

Shouldn't someone with your privledge and connections spend your energy writing about something more important? Yesterday you began constructing a hierarchy of black music and placed Coltrane near the top.

Grace Jones is all image, and that image was constructed by the gay men who were her stylists. John Coltrane had solid talent and didn't need a highly constructed visual image.

As an ingnorant gay cracker, when I look at Grace Jones I don't see any pyramids, I see hair spray, eyeshadow, and lip liner expertly applied. One can see real genius in her make up. But make no mistake, those fags who sew her costumes, shine her pumps, and put together her face work like slaves to create that beauty.

Ooops my older cousin just got off swing shift.
