There is a song I have been trying to remember ever since my vinyl collection was destroyed in a flood in 2006. I couldn't remember the artist, or the title. And then, like a miracle, Ronson pulls out a Nikka Costa record, and immediately a light went off: That's it! I quickly opened up another RU-vid window, and sure enough, there it was: Nikki Costa - "Like a feather". Thatnk you so much, Mr. Ronson, you've finally set my mind at ease. That's been bugging me for years!
Brendonmakesmesmile Mad respect to the guy, and I get the accent and all, but the guy's a mumbler. ....guess his music/production speaks louder than he does. jk ;)
The audio is a little bit off, Mark tends to end his sentences with a softer voice which makes it a little bit hard to hear what he's saying. But glad to see the full video in youtube again!
Hey Fuse, I appreciate these. I'm not sure if you have done it already and I can't find it but it would be cool if you made a playlist of the records featured. I get you can't include the track in the video due to rights issues but to deter people from drifting away from your platform to find these tracks it would be good if you curated a centralised playlist to go through that is synonymous with the video. Just an idea.
Thankyou Mark for getting me into Latin tempo! Already a jazz but that record made me get into latin/Afro-Cuban jazz and all other weird and wonderful funky music.
I saw an article that labeled him a "SVENGALI" - and it really pissed me off. Genius takes so much today, and as a Producer I know he is one of a kind. Honestly he's made collaboration a high art in this current music machine.
This one was a Good one, keep em coming, Large Professor, Premo, Q-Tip, Buckwild, RZA, Prince Paul, Showbiz, Madlib, MF Doom, 9th Wonder, Alchemist etc
I remember paying $80 for Santa Esmeralda's "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" at NYC Downtown Records. It was an amount I thought I'd never spend on a record. But, looking back to that day, it was well worth the investment. Thanks for this video. It brought back so many great memories.
'Baby, This Love I Have' was indeed sampled in Check The Rhime. They used the bass line. The song you may be thinking of is 'Inside My Love' off the same album. The long note Minnie holds in the breakdown of the song and the Rhodes behind were sampled.
That prince story! like WOW! I bloody love the Crate Diggers series, it actually was one of the inspirations for my major work at University last year. I created a documentary style short film about collectors of vinyl records, called 'Gathering Grooves'. It's on my channel, please check it out!
Fuse for actually uploading a whole video here and not redirecting us to another link! Also bring the past videos you did that to so we can watch'em I really want to watch the QBERT video.
tried to act cool like the most I paid for a record is like 80 or 100...then picks up a 200 dollar album he just bought to have....you know his spoiled rich ass be spending thousands on records trying to be as cool as his heros
+melun dank but its not like he bought all those expensive records with his family's money. i can also say im in a rich family and I have a house 5 times bigger than yours but to make my own money I have to sell homework at school and it has taken me about 3 months to make enough money to buy a turntable.
+melun dank I also hate it when people relate being rich with being spoiled. I have never been a spoiled child and I have been responsible since a younger age than most. As for my maidens son, he is the most spoiled kid you will ever see and he yells, cries, kneels, and/or throws whatever he has in his hands just to get attention from someone
