While this thread's up and running -

Ever since I first saw Carl Craig's title "More Songs about Food and 
Revolutionary Art" I've wondered whether this was a nod at Talking 
Heads' album titled "More Songs About Buildings and Food".  Has he 
ever made mention of this in any interviews or hinted at where he 
took his title from?  The names are just so similar, it seems like a 
long shot for it to be totally random chance or synchronicity.

And just to defend my virtue:::

I really wasn't passing judgement at all and nor was I dissing him - 
sorry if it came across that way.  I merely said that that was the 
only material of his that I'd been exposed to.

I've looked around - but there's NOTHING to be found here in South 
Africa :-)  No hard feelings, I hope.
