Dear list:
I saw the history of rock show on PBS monday. This weeks installment
dealt with Hip-hop and house. It was weird in that it spent more time on
the Brasties than on Eric B and Rakim or ll Cool J and spent more time
on techno than house. all in all it was better than whatever else was
on. The funny
thing is that I found out that U2 sampled the same turtles song that the
De La Soul boys got sued for. They use it to end a song called "playboy
mansion" off the pop album. This is the same tune whose melody
supplied the hook for a salt pe[ tune"you told me " or somesuch
