| RabbitEars | Posted: May 07, 2013 - 09:42 wow, so unusual to hear this anywhere but on my home stereo. always loved this song. |
| testpilot | Posted: Feb 02, 2013 - 10:32 interestingly... I hear this for the first time in my life... I think: "oh, are you Sting?"... I check the playlist: "no, but you're related to Sting" Copeland's drumming style is so distinctive you can't miss it (or at least I can't miss it... haha) |

| Gregorama (Austin, TX) | Posted: Jan 20, 2012 - 18:55 This was amazing when it came out, and still is. A classic. |
| bindi (North Carolina) | Posted: Jul 09, 2011 - 07:28 Perhaps you missed the request for some KLARK KENT! (?) |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: Jun 07, 2011 - 16:02 I was thinking it was my computer that was messed up!!!  |
| apd (Toronto, On) | Posted: Apr 11, 2011 - 12:51 what the heck happened to the html on this page? Did Stewarts syncopation throw it off? |
| tallboy1968 (Singapore) | Posted: Mar 11, 2011 - 00:30 Nice vibe. Sounds a bit like some of the stuff I love from The Samples (Boulder, Colorado) circa 1993. |

Does anyone here have the "Klark Kent" / "Klerk Kant" EP in its original translucent fluorescent green vinyl inkarnation?  /  (The actual VINYL was (IIRC) translucent fluorescent green, the cover was merely fluorescent green) Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? I have seen/touched/borrowed/played it, but now I only have a copy on cassette in the attic somewhere. (BTW there's loads of KK on youtube) |

| artmarcia (Derby, KS) | Posted: Apr 20, 2007 - 20:11 What an awesome groove--I'm dancing! |
| Cellocaster_Paul (Aspen) | Posted: Apr 05, 2007 - 00:30 I said what I meant and I meant what I said: Stewart and his cohorts on this album groove divinely!!  |
| Narty | Posted: Mar 20, 2007 - 11:39 His soundtrack for the PS game Spyro the Dragon remains one of my favorites, and I can hear the similarities here. Lovin' it. |
| DigitalJer (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) | Posted: Mar 20, 2007 - 11:37 Copeland = godlike if there ever was one! |

| bindi (North Carolina) | Posted: Jan 18, 2007 - 13:21 Stewart? Excellent!! Bill, if you can dig it up, his Klark Kent has some Kool tunage. |
