[...] This is probably true; in the Press Packet (tm) they sent me promoing a show in '89-'90 or so, they claimed that "Turn On (to thee acid house)" was the first song ever to use "acid house" in the title. I thought "who the fuck cares" and duly put it in my column announcing their show. (I have no idea if it's true or not).
