beat freak sound system (aka rebel mc) - live in acton 87 (mp3)

and now for something completely different. rebel mc is probably best known these days for running congo natty and generally being well-up on all things jungle, but not many people know that he was one of first group of people responsible for bringing the then-burgeoning chicago house scene to the uk, often through his beat freak warehouse parties. this is a live set from acton, a small west london town, back in 1987, and was ripped from a rather fabulous vinyl recording of the gig (which I'd love to post the sleeve image of as it's a lovely parody of the greensleeves covers of the late scientist albums, but can't find my digital camera lead!).

this is mainly made up from loud crowds, horns and whistles, adonis' "no way back", afrika bambaataa's "planet rock" and an unknown track which i'd love to find out about - any help on that part is greatly appreciated, and if you need to break out the vicks to take you back there whilst you listen then please feel free!

can you believe this is 20 years old? - "all the people who get offended easily - get the fuck out of here right now!"
