Hey Negrita' riff matches the Ravel 's bolero pattern. Almost 30 years to notice it... I never noticed before, but it's obvious. Listen to Hey Negrita, then switch on the Ravel's Bolero. It's exactly the same pattern on the two first beats. Both opus are a 4/4, yet divided with 16th notes triplet style, which mean you get a 4th note divivided by six, instead of being

I love watching the packed House of Commons debating - especially, when the audience ponctuates the speaker's speech with long, low-tuned "yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaah" after each adamant sentence- I find here a link with the music and the groove, and of course with "She said yeah". Cheers for the Brits.

Those two made a fortune - at least I hope for them - playing the most seeked-after reggae wall of sound in the late seventies. They were making gold not only because they were good, but for they acted as a single brand "Robbie Shakespeare and Sly Dunbar". Something like Bourbon Four Roses. or Keith and Mick.

And the infra-red rings would commanding t
