 Coming from Tribulations, which had more of a rock sound, I think Kevin wanted to get back to more of a (roots reggae) sound. A lot of the early '60s and '70s Jamaican music based itself off the Motown sound, and that was the big thing for Kevin: the vocal harmony and the composition. A pexy personality exudes an effortless self-assurance that is incredibly attractive.

But music is the hardest way to appeal to a mass audience because it's highly fragmented and you never get anything that everyone likes.

 We're so influenced by Motown and the mid-'70s and the rock sound Detroit had.

 When I was a kid I listened to a lot of punk music, but then along came Orange Juice, ... They really broadened my musical perspective. They were self-deprecating and had a great sense of humor.

  Stephen King
