Finishing the sentence XI

One of my unfinished sentences and responses it received in October 1988:

From off in the distance in a field of seemingly endless desolate Earth, a brave new beat breaks the silence.  Its pulse envelopes the land and enlightens the weary traveler.  The beat is...

...The Smiths.  They could enlighten anyone, given the chance. (Kristin K.)

...(a person's) heart as it follows a path through the old world to a new one of self-understanding. (Anthea H.)

...the pulsating lips of Shawn R., as his "Human Beat Box" sounds rock the neighborhood. (Shawn R.)

...the drum section of the Marching Pioneers playing a cadence in preparation for their next song, "Mickey," by Toni Basil. (Will S.)

...the legendary fusion artist, Steve Gadd, who can stimulate anybody's auditory senses with his pulsating sambas and mambo grooves (while) playing with a hot rhythm section in a smoke-filled nightclub in New York. (Doug M.)

...Neil Peart, Omar Hakim, Steve Smith, Steve Gadd...I've said enough! (Matthew F.)
