WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK?
It’s no wonder why when I first heard ‘When They Fight, They Fight’ by the Generationals I was perplexed as to what “generation” they were from. I was amazed to find that this duo made up of guitarists/songwriters, Ted Joyner and Grant Widmer was in fact not from the 50’s or the 60’s as I expected but rather a modern ensemble. With a sound that very much resembles that of ‘the oldies’, this hit, off their album Con Law (released July 2009), takes you back to the Motown. The pop lyrics tell a story that is about fighting with the one you love, and loving the one you fight unconditionally. I must say, I’m a sucker for a good love song but this one deserves definite praise. The New Orleans based Joyner and Widmer take us back to a time when music was all about having soul and telling your love story and they do it with a sense of fluency.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
