WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT MY CD: 
"u-reap-what-u-sow-2"

**www.mp3.com.au (17/Jun/2002): "HOLY FuNk!!!! WOW!! What a refreshing change from 'pidgeon-holed' music! Jon-E-Shakka's, "U-REAP-WHAT-U-SOW", is a funky blend of a variety of musical influences & styles. My favourite track was: "LOVE.1.WAY", an inspirational reminder of what is truly important in life, wise words of peace & love (you can never have too much of that), without preaching (!!), set to a background of jungle beats!! My second fave is "Goodman/Goodwoman".... I checked out his site, also & this guy's been around for 25 years, performing with top entertainers, including Céline Dion, Bare-Naked Ladies & Jermain Jackson! Impressive! Not only does he compose, he is a Dancer/Choreographer, as well!! Thanx for including him on your site!"  kat mandu
