Call me sad, (and I'm sure you will) but I think the theme tunes to both Knight Rider, Street Hawk and Airwolf were infulenctial in putting me on a path towards electronic music.
O.T.. Speaking of Knight Rider, someone posted this link to me a few days ago. Its for a David hasselhoff CD. Some of the reviews I found Hilarious http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/stores/detail/-/music/B0000070S1/custom er-reviews/ref=cm_rev_sort/103-6973435-8051030?show=-submittime&Go.x=10&Go.y =6 Some of my favourites Hans Phiszter from Deutschland "you can almost hear the creaking of lederhosen as a driving 'oom-pah-pah' beat snakes its way in a fractal baroque spiral around an ecelectic bricollage of disco, rock, country, & incredibly, chicago house on the euphoric 'Danice Dance d'Amour' (rumour has it that david himself programmed the thunderous 808 beats). " Leekinroyfrom little wheezing, glastonbury "Hasselhof oozes Rock spunk.... Lyrically he swim's in a similar gene pool to the Chuckle brothers and roy chubby brown." Reviewer: Adrian Smallwood from The back of my Hillman Imp. Oh my sweetbreads! This CD is, without doubt, the most frenzied attack on the sensory organs (including the bladder) that I have ever experienced. >From the stomping, wendy-House opener "Looking for Freedom", to the clownish, pickled-onion tinged "I Believe". It's just too much, to be honest. I don't think I'll ever be able to listen to it again - but it's still worth the full 5 stars...and some! I only wish chancers like Richard D James, Nigel Havers and the little chap out of Diff'rent Strokes could come up with this kind of filth!
