It was a great bit of TV - hopefully the rest of the series will be as good. They also played the accapella with bells and bongos of Candi Staton's "You Got The Love" that Tristan is after and which several of us here have been puzzling over. Anyone know where it is from? I tried to look at the label but alas! Can't remember who it was, either, that was in that bit of footage (demonstrating what you can do with an accapella and a beat). They also bizarrely played "Love Break" followed immediately by "Word Is Love", two records I have just ordered from one guy. And "Time to Jack", which was on my turntable.
Or maybe I'm just house as f**k. Jonny. P.S. I missed the beginning, so I wouldn't mind a video copy too. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Robbins/Tom Magic Feet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "313 mailing list" <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2001 9:57 AM Subject: Re: [313] For those in the U.K. > Yeah, it was cool.
