John KaSandra - Follow Your Heart (1974) (buy)
Easy Sunday afternoon track here sliced out of the Stax archives. KaSandra apparently made a splash in academia back in the seventies. Canadian professor Homer Hogan devoted a chapter of his book Poetry of Relevance #2 to Kasandra, saying, "KaSandra's songs can keep us thinking long after the music is over. Even in popular songs lyrics (the frailest literary form) we can see how greatness can at least be pre-figured when a writer like KaSandra strips away the veil of ignorance".
Not sure about that but if you're trying to strip away veils of ignorance it can't hurt to have Bill Withers' rhythm section in your back pocket. Take it or leave it. See you next time.
