New one here. Heard it on Kelly Ann Byrne coming home in the car. Museum of Love In Infancy Bottin remix. Museum of Love is a band formed by LCD Soundsystems drummer Pat Mahoney.

Best bit of old school rap Iā€™ve heard in a long timeā€¦

Anna ayea OK!

A cracking cover version of a classic song, that Iā€™m almost embarrassed to say Iā€™d never heard before today.

Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons - Queen Jane Approximately

Here @farmerinthecity, remember how you liked that Global Communication 76.14 album. This was recorded at least 20 years before that and youā€™d have to assume the Global Communication boys at least heard it. Itā€™s Popol Vuh, Aguirre iii from the soundtrack to the batshit crazy Werner Herzog film Aquirre Wrath of God.

One of the forgotten greats of soul.

And here is me lamenting TFK.

:clap:

Iā€™ll have a listen later. Where would those lads have gotten their influences would you say?

Iā€™m fascinated in artists breaking new ground. Itā€™s a bit like Kavanagh endtroducing the two characters in the one song

Im not ashamed to say I got a bit emotional there listening to thatā€¦I hated the more recent cover by Gabrielle, the whiny cunt.

Prefer Shola Amaā€™s version

You would.

Shola Ama

Not Gabrielle

You prick

:joy:

Up your bollox, big man.

I needed a little up tempo to lift the moodā€¦

Womack and Womack- Teardrops.
