LB Bad - New Age Of Faith ( Smokebelch II Original)

Listen to this in stereo at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp1N0iArsuU&fmt=18

Sabres of Paradise released in 1993 the "smokebelch II" 12 inch. Little did most people know that this was a wholesale copy of LB Bad's 1989 B-side to the "True Story Of House".

However, Weatherall and Co. did give writing credits though to Lamont Booker ( LB Bad).

The whole "TSOH" EP is top drawer,not just this ambient masterpiece. Probably the best release on Nu-groove.

Thank you Elbee.

Thank U Ressla! But you must know, and heres the sad shit, WEATHERALL & company & CAFE DEL MAR DID NOT give me any props and (only THEY know WHAT ELSE they didn´t give ME) from the 1st release(s) of his cover! Same as MANY of the remixes and other versions we have heard! BUT PROPS TO U for THIS. I´m mentally working on a vid clip for it! AND if ya see the film PUMP UP THE VOLUME, its a documentary that says & shows pretty much THE TRUE STORY OF HOUSE MUSIC.

I hear ya. At the time Weatherall gave loads of interviews with the music press where they all raved about how good smokebelch II was. In none of those interviews did anyone mention the LB Bad track.They just seemed to want to bask in the praise they were getting.

The funniest thing I read was a piece written by a music journalist who thought Lamont Booker was LTJ Bukem ! He went on for ages as to how much the Sabres respected Bukem!!

@ressla

I respected Weatherall and enjoyed his dying in various places during the 90s but not giving credit here.....fkin cnut

[ConnorTreacy]

@kraftwerkbot What places did he die in?

@odyjamess -and don't give me the publishing excuse or I'll come down on you like a clumsy stripper you cunts-you NEVER gave the props

[odyjamess]

@BadBalenax When I went to college in Manchester I dined out on the fact that David Holmes - a man from near my home had improved / half composed such a classic - I read all the A.W. interviews - there was no mention of LB Bad - we were the post De La Soul generation - we knew sampling and we knew theft-and we are sorry - to have stolen your genius - their attitude was-they're on drugs they won't notice-still quite like weatherall and david holmes though-the theft-UNFORGIVABLE

The original, & THE BEST!

@amcurley100 Yes your right, BUT ...The TRUE STORY OF ...is...LOOK DEEPER! 1 example...THEE original CAFE DEL MAR CD/ALBUM release. Now READ who is listed as the writer...I'll give U a hint, there are 3 names, and none are with the intials L & B. So with THAT knowledge, WHO DO YOU THINK GOT PAID BY WHO's PUBLISHER? Want MORE examplessssssssssss? (thats an honest sarcasm! -the question of wanting MORE xamples) ANYBODY got questions? write me. I THANK U all (& Andy) 4 LISTENING!!

its a very sad song without being depressing , more relaxing , mojo filters remix is brilliant although this still sounds fresh, its great

[nosher70]

Hi there, I shall always remember my clubbing days of the early nineties and late 80"s fondly,however it is a sad day for me indeed-i thought i knew my house music.Smokebelch will forever now be a tainted memory..........
