Brand New Heavies, you have ruined my random play function on iTunes for the last time!

I've been selling off CDs I have no nostalgic attachment to, and among the first to go were my Brand New Heavies CDs. Unfortunately, several times over the past week I've had my random feature on and song after wonderful song has played, only to be interrupted by the lite-funk, pseudo-soul of these fops, who sure as hell sound a lot better when a) not mixed in with superior tunes, and b) when the listener is drunk.

Begone, Brand New Heavies! away with ye, into the abyss!

heavy rhyme experience is ok.

except for the music.

I had Shelter, Heavy Rhyme experience, and Original Flava in my itunes. I was tempted to hang onto my BNH albums because, as the latter album notes, they were the originals when it came to flava.

I love the tune they did with Main Source. That's all I have to contribute. Adios.

has the 3rd Bass track that got axed from Heavy Rhyme Experience ever leaked?

Their second album, self-titled, was pretty tight. It was downhill from there, though.

Wilco were the first to get purged from the Top 10,000 Songs Of All Time on my MP3 player. Then much of Scott Walker.

Sorry.

if you click on the little blue check box by each track they'll never get played unless you specifically request them.

Oddly, I have been doing the same thing (selling off discs that time has been unkind to), and fuckin' "Dream On, Dreamer" still worms its sickly, mid-90's crapishness into my headphones whenever I'm on random shuffle.

I'd rather listen to Level 42.

I heard "Something About You" by them yestereday, and it put me off my food for the rest of the day.
