Hey it’s me. I’m not dead. I’ve just been incredibly busy. Father’s Day. Work. Technical difficulties with my turntable. Shit snowballs.
What have I been so busy doing you ask? Well, I did interview the lead singer of Foxy Shazam motherfuckers! You should go read that interview. It’s amazing. Every word spoken in it was spoken by someone born in Toledo, Ohio. So, hey, beat that.
Anyways, here are some stupid remixes.
The Rolling Stones
Anybody Seen My Baby (Armand Van Helden Rolling Steelo Mix)
Anybody Seen My Baby (Soul Solution Vocal Dub)
Anybody Seen My Baby (Casanova New Vocal Mix)
Unless there’s a 12” dance remix of Satisfaction out there I think this will be one of the only times I feature Rolling Stones’ tracks on this blog. Note: If there are 12” dance remixes of Satisfaction out there, I don’t need them. These remixes of Constant Craving a song that wasn’t a total rip-off are from a 12” single.
And yes, I know they gave K.D. Lang a songwriting credit for the song after they “discovered” the similarities, but hey, I bet the inheritors of The Staple Sisters estate are still waiting for a check after the Stones became “inspired” by their arrangement of a gospel song that the Stones took sole writing credit for. So then 30+ years later when The Verve sampled a cover of the song, which the Stones didn’t really write mind you, they were forced to hand over all the rights to it. Fucking wankers.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Higher Ground (Freckle Nose Mix)
Higher Ground (B. G. Dub)
Higher Ground (Pearly 12″)
If You Want Me To Stay (Jingle Hell Mix)
If You Want Me To Stay (Instr-Mental)
I’m sure Stevie gets the royalties for the “Higher Ground” cover. Good thing too. This cover is still the best thing RHCP ever put out.
