If you played the man in the street a Mowtown Record and a Stax Record
he'd probably not know which was on which label, and he'd probably think they were the same sort of genre.

yeah, but if you played the man in the street a U2 record he might say it was good.
The man in the street is no indication of anything

I just live in a Cul de Sac in a suburb. We don't get a lot of passing traffic.

I agree.

I thought you had something there but the genre is ska and 2Tone's just a style of it, no?
