What are you listening to right now?

^^ Ah, here's to those pre-post-teleological days of yore when every single hip-hop single was built on a looped sample of "Funky Drummer"! Except for the ones that used the Amen Break, of course. That LLCJ was a purist, though.

Here's one for the lyrical callback:



And one for the gender equity (plus the sample from the Isleys song upthread):

Overhead bloodthirsty vultures circle patiently.
They offer condolences and whisper bitter eulogies.
Yes, "comrades" come as thick as thieves.
But you got another thing coming.
With friends like these, who the fuck needs COINTELPRO?

(There's a guy playing one of those steel drums who I have known for most of my life, since before I started school. He went from that band, possibly that gig to here, all for the love of a vulcanologist, and they are still married today, 40 years later.)

Land Of The Loops - Growing Concern

Here I am standin’ in the
desert with a gun
Thought of going AWOL but I’m
too afraid to run
So I got myself a new plan
Stealin’ from the Taliban
Make a little money turning
poppies into heroin
Sergeant didn’t like it so they
put me in a hole
I said, “It’s easy shootin’ when they
don’t know where to go.”
Threw me on a lily pad
Sent me home to NORAD.
I knew I’d be in trouble but I
didn’t think it be this bad.

Stranger wearin’ all black
Met me on the tarmac
Told him I was sorry but
I ain’t ever going back
He said, you ain’t in trouble son
Learn to fight without a gun
Got a new assignment now, you’re
working for the Pentagon
Gonna take a trip, wouldn’t
tell me what it’s for
Gotta serve your country, gonna
help us win the war
MIT, Ph.D.’s,
night and day, they’re testing me
Ain’t what I was thinking but I’m
being all that I can be
I ain’t no genius but I
knew it wasn’t right
Eating uppers in the morning
and LSD at night
Send me off to deep space
Help ‘em win the arms race
Ola me, oh mighty, but this
shit has got a funny taste.
