Thanks for the info Bellyman.

Thanks for the inspiration meeuwis.

To me it was surely one of the best roots album from the 90s decade ... It shows the way to many bands who have lost their souls in this decade .
From 1990 to 2000 not many good roots album like "21st century" were released Tracks like "fire is burning" "21st century" or "Heroes just the same" are simply exceptional.
(In my Humble opinion...)

Big shout to Collieman who is exactly correct - man still had something to say after all them years. You know how the album was made? Story goes that Lincoln used to use a shop in London a lot, an Asian grocer. And the grocerman got talking to him and aks him what he did and about his life, and sought out some of his music. And when he realise how beautiful this music was him aks Lincoln how come he never make music now and got the reply that there was no finance for the kind of music he made nowadays. So the grocerman got to thinking and found the money to put the great and unique Prince Lincoln back in the studio. But the album deal fell through after it was first demoed up on white label and by the time it was ready to press up again, tragedy struck...
