As long as I’m mentioning John Oswald, this is a good excuse to link to an article I wrote on the old TPV site back in 1999 about the legendary “Lessons” records by Double Dee and Steinski. As a bonus, here is an article Robert Christgau wrote on the phenomenon for the Village Voice in 1986. At some point, if y’all are good, I’ll post the original three Lessons, plus the mix that played on Tommy Boy’s on-hold phone system, as well as Cut Chemist’s follow-up Lessons 4 and 6.
