The Beat Classics comp was pretty good. I am not that knowledgeable about hip hop as old as alot of that stuff. I can say that my friend Coby was pulling out some really old Schoolly D records that had the Tackhead/On U Sound crew producing (or collaborating) and that stuff was cool!

I've heard some really great old stuff at Coby's that was excellent. Some of it totally sounded like stuff that might of influenced Coldcut when they did Beats and Pieces. This stuff was OLD. > > Oh yeah, and I have a dodgy old industrial > > sounding 12" by someone called Statik which has a > > J Saul Kane mix on it. ANyone know anything about > > this? It'd be from the late 80s, from memory. I'm sure EVERYONE knows this but J Saul Kane was also involved with Eon in the early days. I know he produced (and maybe even co-wrote) the Spice and the whole Eon lp. J Saul Kane has definitely been one of the best trip hop artists out there. Recording under the name Depth Charge, Octagon Man, and Alexander's Dark Band. Cheers _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
