Sugarhill Gang, On-U Sound, "Malcolm X No Sell Out" -- how can Keith *lose*?

(That said, last I heard Dolby was a wanna-be multimedia guru and LeBlanc was recording albums of drum loops for sampling purposes. Winning is a relative term, I'm saying.)

yeah. you seen how much those sample cd's sell for ! keith must be minted. no wonder he rather does this new thing ra(and best) ther than get TACK>>HEAD going again. also .. his debut solo lp .. major malfu(n)ction has been reissued. though i've yet to see it. and Einstein is a stunning track.
over and out.

Um, I really like both, but for completely different reasons. I might shed more than a tear if I had no "Einstein".

Still, Golden Age of Wireless *is* pretty classic, and Dolby gets bonus points for keybs on Pyromania. (The image of TD in the studio with the Lep never fails to raise a smile.) Plus, Allmusic says he wrote and produced "Magic's Wand" for Whodini -- who knew?

Shame that no one ever came out with a techstep remix of "Hyperactive," back when that would have meant something. (Or did they?)

LeBlanc is great, but he'll never match Dolby's ear for sheer poptastic bliss.
