MAN! I was like 8 years old when this came out! The first time I heard this (back in 89) it drove me crazy! Back then, for some reason, I never heard it again, but luckily I still had the pleasant memory of that sound in my head to still jam to lol. BUT NOW I can hear it any time I want to!!! If there truly is a god, me he bless You Tube!!
This was one of my most high points from my home town Ilford. I was on my roller skates one night outside the Havelock pub when an older guy asked if I can find folks for this music video. I thought he was being a creep at the time and told him to fuck off... We were blunt back then in London. He told me to take a look at the waste ground behind that pub. When I did, I could see the DJ table set up and a stack of production lights and speakers. It must have taken me only a few mins to get the word out and within 10 mins I had a bunch of local youths I would normally see from day to day all at the waste land being directed to act out for the camera. After all that, my part on skates was cut from the main take 😞 but I would still love to get copies if someone somewhere has the original film. Big up the Ilford posse.
I remember this used to be in heavy rotation on BET Rap City and Yo! MTV Raps back in 1988.Richie Rich remixed and strached on Robert Plant's Tall Cool One that how i found out about him.
OH MY GOD, THIS TRACK TAKES ME BACK WHEN I WAS 11 YEARS OLD WATCHING THIS VIDEO FROM THE SHOW CALLED ELECTRIC CIRCUS. AND MADE THE PLAN TO GO BACK TO MONTREAL, GO TO MY UNCLES RECORD SHOP AND BECOME A YOUNGEST DJ, SO I DID, AND THEN IM A SELF TAUGHT DJ, I DON'T KNOW HOW, BUT I DID MY THANG, UNTIL MY UNCLE HEARD ME AND OFFERED ME TO PLAY DOWNSTAIRS AT HIS BASEMENT WAS MY FIRST JAM EVER.
Wow.....haven't heard this in a while.....it's once again music to my ears.....great vibe.....
