World Destruction By "Time Zone" (John Lydon)Anyone remember this gem?I just stumbeled across it in my massive record stash.Afrika Bambaataa & John Lydon : vocals; Bill Laswell : bass, DMX; Bernie Worrell : synthesizer; Nicky Skopelitis : guitar; Aiyb Dieng : percussion.1984 - Celluloid.I think this kicks a** a great mix of slick Afrika Bambaataa's synth's a slice of Laswell's intrusion and sharp guitar.Kind of Electro punk with alot of angst. what's anybody elses take on this?

One of the songs we always loved to hear in the clubs, along with Ledernacken - Amok (shares the anger), Tones on Tail - Go! (shares the energy), Kon Kan - I Beg Your Pardon (shares the mixing), Tin Tin - Kiss Me (shares... well... nothing).

Gotta love

Always a big hit with the dance crowd for sure. Powerful and easy to mix into and out of.

Yeah, this is a great song, really aggressive drumbeat; very cool to hear some true innovators collaborate - - if you happen to have the single, check out the b-side for some interesting spoken-word snippets concerning 'Mr. Reagan'....So 80's!!!

So '80s? It's so '00s as well...

"A democratic/communist relationship won't stand in the way of the Islamic force" ??

"World domination is going to work against you" ???

Sheesh!

I always liked when Africa sings, "Who wants to be a president or a king?"

And John Lydon shouts out, "ME!"

Great stuff it's going to be in my shared folder on Kazaa very soon.

My ID is "savethewave829."
