A fan's comment about Quid Pro Quo
Wow! I'm relistening in depth to Quid Pro Quo and "The One Sure Thing" using headphones and hear all these new great things with clarity. From sway of the stereo acoustic guitars to the excitable bass coming in with energy and punch to the organ (ala Crowded House) before each chorus. The spirit of the vocals is matched by the music and really is as close to a perfect arrangement as I've heard in quite some time.

01.15 - This past week or so Yahoo Angry's Todd Rundgren and Utopia mailing list could easily have been renamed "Angry's Kasim Sulton and Utopia" as Kasim has been mentioned far more than Todd due to the release of Quid Pro Quo! Yesterday a guy from Argentina complained that with their devalued currency there, for him to buy a copy of Quid Pro Quo would be the equivilant of $60 so overnight about 3 people offered to buy him a copy themselves!

A fan's view of Quid Pro Quo
"Heaven Help The Child" is the most beautiful sort of lullaby I have heard in a long long time, I am fortunate enough to have heard it in it's beginning stage from February of last year. Your gonna love it, Kas sounds like an angel.

"Sacrifice" is a triumphant song, wonderful melody I can't seem to get outta my head. but "Heaven Help The Child " is also that way, the chorus is the killer, and if you have children it will mean soo much more to you.
