  • DOR said:Pretty amazing stuff... Are there very many hip hop artist out there who have gone as long as De La and still able to rock it so well? DAMN. Just over 2 weeks and this will be 25 years! They've been pretty da…
  • batmon said: Slept-on minor classic. Dunno why he doesn't do more movies like this. I'd definitely be down for a Spike actioner or sci-fi flick.

  • Jonny_Paycheck said:Paging DocMcCoy: is it standard practice to pay out every rights holder on something like this, or would the nature of the interpolation allow for them to just pay those responsible for the lyrics/melody? It's obviously not a mas…
  • tabira said:This reminds me just how tribal youth culture was then. Jazz funkers dissing disco. Who here today doesn't dig both? Yeah, all that shit has gone now. Some other things have pretty much stayed the same though.
  • batmon said:HarveyCanal said:"Although funk is traditionally American, they believe that their tastes are now ahead of the fans on the other side of the Atlantic." Ha....this is a cool doc though. Im trying to think around 1980 where Ja…
  • The record store in Brixton tube station near the start of the film used to be a cool little spot. It was still there 11 years later, when I first moved to South London. The dude with the poodle cut had gone by then, but the little Jewish guy was st…

  • Almost a perfect weekend of football. We batter Arsenal into a dark wet spot in the middle of Anfield, City drop a couple of crucial points, Everton lose to Spuds and Yanited feel the karmic payback of all that Fergie Time. Meanwhile,…
  • dreskieboogie said:Do a little selling here: http://www.discogs.com/seller/thebrooklynway Is that Simon Turner album sought after now? A few friends of mine do a lot of work with him - he's known as Simon Fisher-Turner these days - and…
  • disco_che said:DocMcCoy said: Thanks, man. I figured it'd have something to do with Berlin being smack in the middle of a communist state during the period in which Jara became such an iconic figure on the left. Seen a few Violetta Parra and …
  • ppadilha said:El Derecho de Vivir en Paz has some good tunes as well. from what I understand his own recordings were limited since he was killed fairly early in his career. I think there are a lot of records that just repackage his music, so…
  • Flomotion said:Youtube has full Jara LPs for days. Thanks, this is a very useful tip. I keep forgetting about the delights that can be unearthed by entering the "[artist name]+full+album" search string into YouTube.
  • disco_che said:While living in Chile for some months I learned a lot about Jara and his importance for the left movement. You'll see his face painted in murals everywhere. He is equally treasured as Violetta Parra and Pablo Neruda. I also was expose…
  • J i m s t e r said:Loudrock excused of his Swansea duties. Harsh, no? It's not like he scuppered them out of a CL jackpot ticket. Supposedly the victim of a player's revolt. Not in a "lost the dressing room" kind of way, although I fail to se…
  • Noz has brought back Cocaine Blunts for who knows how long, and he's revived his Recent Adds feature as well. Of all the tunes he chose to highlight, this one grabbed me straight away. Sounds really good loud.
  • "99% white." Pics here.
  • J i m s t e r said:He's still at it? (Purple Ackee-R, for Doc) http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/akinwale-arobieke-bodybuilder-banned-touching-6662374 That's actually a pretty rum do, though. Akie might…
  • james said:dukeofdelridge said:Does "pop some tags" mean he's switching prices or stealing shit from the thrift store? That part confuses me. "Popping tags" means showing off labels. Like, flipping the tags outward so that people can see who made …
