Strings (Ain't What They Used To Be) is Ashley Beedle's remake of the classic Derrick May track. Beedle is an established UK producer known for his Black Science Orchestra, Ballistic Brothers, and Black Jazz Chronicles among others... -->-Lance--- mclance@nacs.net lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states

Graham: This is a British bloke doing a cover of the classic "Strings Of Life". Apparently Derrick May wasn't too impressed with the result, thus the different title. Andrew :) Graham Voice wrote:
