that's original", but one of the interludes _is_ a favorite part of the album for me. It's a guy rapping over a beat that sounds like it was constructed from street musicians playing on overturned barrels & buckets & things. Too bad it's so short (around a minute)...<< "Head Rush on Lafayette" - that was my favourite too! And the guy drops his phone number at the end too - we'll all have to call him up (212-2404-9530840) and tell him he's uncredited on the album. The other interlude that cracked me up was the gay sounding kid who wasn't allowed to dance at the punk club cos they thought he was moshing... and the girl going on about James Bond and then she argues with the guy who thinks Shaft would kick his ass! The first album was cool but in a different way - it was more like a film soundtrack with a dance music undercurrent while "Let's Get Killed" reverses this. On a more stupid note, I always though the outline on the cover was a fierce dog rushing headlong out of the CD - the two arms dangling down are like paws. Guess I'm on the wrong list. BABY DIDDY
