The Clash - Straight to Hell

(perhaps most well known these days as the song MIA sampled for Paper Planes)

<3 <3 <3 this song. if you were ever in Virgin Records in Union Square and heard this on, it was most likely from me to you. :)

many a call did i make to Brother Mike in the DJ booth to play it during my shifts. Brother Mike was one crazy bastard too. when he was in the elevator he would shout all sorts of vulgarities at the top of his lungs. “DICK SUCK ASS FUCK WHORE CUNT SUCK DICK” …i think he thought it was sound proofish. shrug. i joined in whenever i was in the elevator with him. good fun. Brother Mike was always calling someone a fuckhead or little prick and they usually deserved it. he hated customers with an uncanny passion, often telling them how shitty their music tastes were. and what did the boss say? “oh that brother mike. hey, call him Sexy Lips; he likes it.” only to have people call him up and say “hey sexy lips” to be returned with of a string of vulgarities and then bossman would just laugh his head off.

damn i miss that place sometimes.
