1989 was a year in which Hip Hop was rising high with acts like De La Soul, The Jungle Brothers and Slick Rick bringing their good time beats to the ears of mainstream radio listeners. Back on the block the homies were listening to mixtapes on their gargantuan portable boom boxes and mastering bold new forms of dance with popping and breaking.

    I was child growing up in the 80's and the 90's - I loved this. KLF! Oh yes. ALthough I was not a huge fan of the boomboxes - I was given a pretty nice Sony hi-fi with Speakers, and had mates who were complete audiophiles - so the speakers were proper too. KLF seemed to be modelling freaks too - with Sample city in the various vids - favourite being Last Train To Transcentral. Reading your lenses has been a bit of a nostalgia trip for me!
