Since when did the Wu-Tang have hardcore West Country accents?

sorry to hijack and everything but...

----------------------------
Mission from 'Arry -
B-side to Iron Maiden's 2 Minutes To Midnight single.

The track is nothing more then an argument between Iron Maiden drummer Nicko McBrain and bassist Steve Harris (who's nickname is 'Arry), but it is hilarious. It was secretly recorded by Bruce Dickinson, after one of the shows on the World Piece Tour.
During the show, Nicko was playing his drum solo. While he was doing that, Steve had some problems with his bass guitar. He sent the first guy who he saw to tell Nicko that he should extend his drum solo.
The guy went to Nicko, but since he didn't know how to properly communicate with Nicko while he was playing, Nicko got confused and messed up his solo. He got angered by it, and he punched the guy after the show. Steve didn't like that, so they had an argument about it. When it had calmed down, Bruce walked in to ask what happened, and secretly recorded it. In the end, Steve is on to Bruce and says the immortal words "some cunt's recording this".

one year passes...

Both "The Troggs Tapes" AND "Mission From 'Arry" make great listening. What else out there is similar to this!

You ever hear the legendary Murry Wilson (ie dad of most of the Beach Boys) meltdown in the recording studio?

The homemade video is cute and all but play it back first just listening to the audio:

Roxy -- there's all sorts of randomness around along these lines; drop me a line.

Help yourself to the Kooper Tapes: http://bedazzled.blogs.com/bedazzled/the_al_kooper_tapes/index.html

I especially recommend the St. Regis tape - 80s band hires Kooper to produce, hilarity ensues:

Also, the Buddy Rich tapes:

Haha, I should have guessed Elvis T. would come through with the goods. The Buddy Rich tapes are indeed urgent and key.
