5.0 out of 5 stars Drag 'Em In The River, March 11, 2000
By JRH (Cleveland, Ohio) - See all my reviews
This is an excellent CD. Lil Ya, of UNLV, has recently gone solo by I can't find it here or at any other on-line music site. I heard you can get it if you special order it at Camelot, Record Town, or Coconuts, one of them. It's called "Another Massacre" by Lil Ya, on Hard Times Records. Lil Ya and UNLV are great, but Another Massacre is their best work. It's very laid back and intense at the same time.
