Makes reasonable sense. But the Beck song's more complicated than that. Check the .sig, Andy As is common with his Odelay-era songs, Devils Haircut is driven by a number of samples: the drums in the choruses and drum breaks come from Pretty Purdie's Soul Drums; the drumbeat during the verses comes from Them's cover of James Brown's Out of Sight; and the guitar riff was taken from another Them cover (this time of I Can Only Give You Everything [Troggs] from Them Again,) but it was replayed by Beck, rather than sampled. - --from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil%27s_Haircut_(song) ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2009 00:39:27 -0400 From: Jenny Grover Subject: [loud-fans] call to documentary buffs If any of you get to see this film (when it comes out in the English language version, unless you are fluent in Polish), please weigh in.
