Well, it just seems to be some sort of a pattern, you know? Look at Cybotron's Rick Davis. Where is he now? You see a lot of the people that co-produced tracks or that had a great deal of influence disapear into obscurity. And it's a record like Nude Photo we're talking about here, one of the first records that came out that you could call Techno, so if Barnett indeed had a part in the record, then he has a part in Detroit Techno history... And if we think outside the artistic contribution, he's a co-founder of Transmat, one of the base labels of Detroit Techno's growth.
