Yeah Boyyyyy, That sounds phat. Check out Larry Young's Fuel LP on
Arista (Been re-issued) but I got an original. It has a phat moog-ey
track called Turn off the Lights. The breakbeat in it is ill, don't
sleep on this one. I just found it 4 months ago, I've been playing it at
all my gigs! ALSO check out Shadows on Lonnie Liston Smith's Expansions
LP (Classic) for some serious prototype early drum & bass, but for full
effect you have to minus 8, and play at 45. That's where Roni Size got
"It's a jazz thing" from! Diggin' in the crates is the BEST. I've found
ILL drum & bass loops from 5th dimension , Leon Thomas, Dennis Coffey,
and even Jimmy McGriff's The Worm. Let me know all your finds, I'm very
interested!!

Hey I was rereading an old posting where you talked about spacey stuff and
thought of something.
Last week I picked up a Peter Nero record called "From Hair to Hollywood"
where he does movie themes on one side and stuff from Hair on the other.
Since I collect "Hair Pieces" I had to pick it up (it being a whole dollar).
There is a wild version of Windmills of Your Mind that precisely fits the
description you gave on a previous posting of Latin Love Machine (which I
don't have to compare). You wrote: "In addition to a nice noodly solo intro
, the Drummer was gettin funky throughouT . I
dont know how they ever called this MOR music.!!1 problem is : He is
never left alone, so you gotta sample a very big recognizable piece of
the melody> except at the end and thats kinda noisy. Th outro is
buggin!"
That fits this version exactly! Except it's Peter Nero on the moog, unless
he's frontin'. Wierd, right? The liner notes say: "{blahblah} plays the
drums on Windmills of Your Mind which is the only sound not produced by the
moog synthesizer." So of course I had to go right to that one to check it
out. Man there's nothing like that moog bass!
Also digging through my pops stuff I found a moog "love songs" record with
Look of Love and stuff like that on it. I haven't checked out yet, but on the
back of that one however, there's an ad for "other records on this label
featuring the moog" that shows this one LP that's got to be the bomb (I've
never heard of it before). They call it "the first moog rock record", and it
has the typical stuff, Sunshine of Your Love and other "heavy" covers, but the
personel listed is bass & drums Morris Jennings and Cleavland Eaton, the
Ramsey Lewis rhythm section! Anybody out there heard of it? I'll post the
particulars when I have a chance to check the record again.
If you got to the end of this (sorry bout the long post), how about people
coming up with a list of Hair soundtracks/cover versions?
