time)... As previous respondents have replied the release order was : 1st: Good Times by Chic 2nd: Rappers Delight by Sugarhill Gang 3rd: Another One Bites the Dust - Queen 4th: Grandmaster Flash on the Wheels of Steel where Flash cuts up both 'Good Times' and 'Another one...' Shame about Bernard Edwards of Chic who died a couple of years ago. One of my heroes. _____________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
