Some unusual sounds on there, not convinced that all of them were hits . Some of them sound like Nokia ringtones and doesn't help that the Quicktime player keeps cutting out as I'm listening, not sure if that's the fault of the site or my 'puter. JP - I'm confident on 18, 22 & 43 that you were having difficulties with if you haven't got them on take 2 ! (That doesn't mean I knew all the rest - only got 6 from the first 10, didn't get 7 either !).

18 I thought was Pump up the Volume by MARRS rather than Rocket by Herbie Hancock (don't have a copy of either to clarify)

Post by wibbin on Mar 13, 2005 21:55:16 GMT 1
Rocket was 1983
Pump up the volume was 1987

40) Buffalo Stance - Neneh Cherry
At least, part of the sample used is in that for sure! Think the distinctive bassline was about to kick in....

Wife thought it was 'Gloria' but she couldnt remember who by?
Any good?

Gloria? Can only think of Laura Branagan or U2 Its sounds like Pilch said Buffalo Gals. It certainly isnt Buffalo Stance as there are words at the start of that track. More head scratching
