Sounds very familiar doesn't it? I remember playing this one in the clubs around '80, '81.

Cover of "White Lines" by Grandmaster Flash? Hmm, what's the relation between these?

That is what I meant. Of course rap songs themselves can be original. But rap music has always been based on taking the music from other songs. I don't think there is anything wrong with that. But using another song for your own song inherently makes it somewhat un-original. [:I]

This is an interesting musical footnote. I thought White Lines was original. Of course, guess not.

You listen to this Liquid Liquid song and expecting to hear "FREEBASE!"

Liquid Liquid is fantastic.
I still have some 12" of them. Funny enough DIG, WE MUST is never seen on eBay or any cd-collection. Great 12".

Unfortunately my good ol' turntable canb only play slow. 45 is too much for the ol'beast. [xx(]
