Duh! Yeah, I do remember you asking this after all.

Well, now I'm here...
Hmm. It's not so easy as it seems. I don't have either of the 2CD sets
you mention, but I'll give it a go anyway (more fool me). On the
original Blue Planet 12", the second track on the first side is
"Versatile" and the first on the second side is "Tuff Rinse", but this
wont help you any, I don't think. Plus there are no vocal samples that
identify either of them. The only thing that I can say "Tuff Rinse" has
a cartoon 'running' sound somewhere in the first minute or so. What I
mean by this is that its the sound in old Tom & Jerry, Popeye etc
cartoons when a character legs it (from a rabid dog, impending hammer
blow to the skull, impressive girder constructions coming tumbling down
etc). What in the blazing hell-pit am I talking about? Anyway,
it also has kettle drums/timpani's right at the end (wait a
minute...shit, so does "Versatile" Grrr!). But "Versatile" also has a
g-funk high pitched whiney noise (like the one in DJ Zinc's "Super Sharp
Shooter") near the beginning, has a whistle noise and someone laughing
menacingly in the middle. From the vinyl grooves, it looks to be shorter
in length that "Tuff Rinse" (but not that much, so don't take this as
neccesarily being true). Both tracks have big meaty bass action, but
"Versatile" punches more holes in the speaker and has more of a groove,
and it's much better too, although I suspect this last point is a little
to subjective...
I really really really hope you understand what I'm getting at and can
identify the track(s), for the sake of me and my sanity more than you
and yours :-)
Bwaaaargh.
Gb.
PS So which once has the Spooky bass in it again? Gwarrraahaahhgle!
