Ah yes, thanks so much people. Actually Duran's John Taylor and Nick
Rhodes assembled a great ol' skool mixtape a couple of years ago I
would recommend with tracks by John Foxx and the like (on Amazon).
Nick used to DJ at the Brum nightspot Rum Runner in the late '70s.
It's a great listen and houses some lesser known New Wave and synth-
pop. Roger has DJed a bit in recent years. They're lovely guys, too,
as I have spoken to them for mags a couple of times and found them
very au fait with house. I still argue that their music is more
interesting than Depeche Mode's...

I thought that "Free Your Mind " sampled Shut Up and Dance's
"Dance Before the Police Come", though they (PJ and Smiley) may
have ripped their sample from Duran Duran for all I know. They
certainly sampled just about everybody else - check the remix of
that track and guess who they sampled..
