Elisha Laverne - Ready For Your Love (1992)



Loved this track back in the early 1990's from Elisha Laverne - Ready For Your Love. Seems very difficult to get hold of as well. Featured on this UK compilation from 1992, In Full Swing. You can keep the rest of the tracks on this...

Martha Cooper Interview



Just found this interview with legendary graffiti photographer Martha Cooper This is a must for anyone who's into graffiti art. I think it's only from a year or two ago as well. The amazing book Subway Art is also here for anyone who missed this piece of history..

Innocence Riders On The Storm (1990)



Well I didn't even know this existed until just now. This is, of course, a cover version of The Doors classic 'Riders On The Storm' This was actually on the Innocence Belief album, but only the US version. She sounds sweet on this.

Neneh Cherry Inna City Mama (Remix) 1990



This remix has one of the best and biggest rumbling basslines you'll ever hear-it is truly earth shattering! Fantastic tune from her classic album 'Raw Like Sushi' Maybe could have done without the rap but that was the style in those days. In any case it can be edited out with any decent sound recording software.(Which I did..)

Erykah Badu On & On (Universal) 1997



First track on Erykah Badu's amazing Baduizm. I played this over and over again in 1997. The real sh*t.
