"Roland was a true inivator. With all the cheesy stuff aside, he was a serious black muscians supporter. Which makes me wonder why I never hear him mention on black history month. I am not black and won't pretend to know all thier is know about black culture, but I will say Roland did more for black history, than 2pac ever did. Roland play a 21 minute saxaphone solo without breathing. This man had heart. It's a shame he wasnt' bigger we would be a different musical world. He was brilliant, I have much respect for him and mainly his music. I wish more people supported him so his cd's wouldnt' constanly be in and out of print. If you like music, purchase this without hesitation, you must be prepared to feel Rhasshan!!"

"I am not sure when I first herad this maybe 25 years ago? It was late at night summer and it was hot outside and I could not sleep so I put on the radio and this wonderful music came from the speakers. It carried me places and allowed my mind to relax. I waited and waited for the DJ to annoucnce exactly what this new music was that I heard. He finnaly told said Prepare thyself to Deal with a Miracle. It took me a while to located an Lp and I never thought it would be issued on cd but it is. Rahsann combines elements of jazz, classical, world and himself to come up with his best album of the 1970's."

The genius unnoticed...

"Yeah, I have to agree. I actually think this cat should be as known as Stevie Wonder, Hendrix, The Beatles, and any other innovators. He truely revoloutionized the instrument(s).



Everyone I play him to is converted. He is a gift from music.
