didnt hear any sayer but got to see a bald fat fellow rapping will smith's 'wild wild west' at the dinner table.
he was wearing a P.L.O. scarf and a cowboy hat.
79 cockney chat from blankety blank regular Lorraine Chase. bonus kazoo action
Terrible thread
B/w
Brilliant thread
More national pride threads that mention Blankety Blank and Come Dine With Me please.
I saw that Leo Sayer episode, he was rapping in Thai as well if i remember correctly.
He admitted that it's pretty much all scripted & the "celebrities" are only given a little leeway with ad libs. Therefore any Sayer/Moe Dee/Will Smith moments are likely forced. Sorry.
Back on topic, I can't listen to the track above (phone posting-related) but otherwise it has to be TW Funkmasters no?
Please let it be so.
Barnsley Bill was 80s. 81? Let me google. 81.
The rule should be it was intentionally and obviously a rap rekkid. Like pr0n, it's hard to define accurately but you know it when you see it.
If GSH is the father of rap, the John Cooper Clarke could/should be the Brit equivalent.
Mid 70s iirc.
Not wanting to debate semantics here, but I'd say if that Lorraine Chase record counts, why should HMWYRS? Obviosly Ian Dury was likely to have been unaware of what was hapening in The Bronx parks in the late 70's, but based on the technicalities, Rhythm Stick isn't too far off the mark..
In one of them moods today. Sorry.
#2 son just gone to A&E. Had him @ NHS direct last two nights, thought he was on the mend. Going to be a very long night I suspect.
I blacked out last week, hit me head, and was taken to hozzie on Tue. 7-10 days off he said. LOL. Try that without getting paid, son. I was back in on Thu. I am right as, now, pls believe.
D&V - There's a lot of it about, apparently.
But you forget the downtown scene which was the playground for DJ Hollywood, Eddie Cheeba and Lovebug Starski.
I have no clue if Ian Dury or Joan Baez are influenced by that, but why shouldnt they've been in a downtown club and seeing Hollywood do his thing ?
Check Joan Baez with here song "Time Rag" which she calls a "Talking Disco Blues" from 1977. It was releasesd in the UK too as a 45.
B/w naan sandwich: revisit next Sunday.
Unfinished business.

and this lad. not wearing the stetson here but he brought out the parrot
Word is bond, I would not lie about the Sayer. Dude came across somewhere between Jonny Ball and a lobotomized RamJam Rodigan. But at least he seemed like a genuine weirdo, so I can forgive it somewhat. The other guy who failed to karaoke Will Smith seems just a straight up shitty, putting it on for the camera, knob'ed.
With baited breath I wait.
B/W Get well soon Jimster
I've still got that somewhere, and yeah, it is. Sometime in '82, IIRC. Around the same time, though, you had things like Wham Rap coming out (no pun intended). Then there were the likes of Funkapolitan, a bunch of posh boys from West London whose bass player later became the noted furniture designer Tom Dixon, OBE, and whose only album was produced by August Darnell. Or Multivizion, who shared a bassist with Freeez and whose sole single, frustratingly, didn't include an instrumental. Which was a pity, because the vocals were fuck-awful. Even at the time, both these records bore only a passing resemblance to anything you'd meaningfully call "rap".
Uk rap from 80.
