[Response to Sushan's xanga on blackbird copyleft]
Just found there is also Bow Wow Wow, represented by EMI, which the song itself encourage you to duplicate their songs with yr own tape in the 1980.
...
off the radio I get a constant flow
hit it, pause it, record it and play
turn it, rewind, and rub it away
...
C30 C60 C90 Go
...
Policeman stopped me in my tracks
said "Hey you, you can't tape that
you're under arrest 'cause it's illegal"
So I shoved him off and blew his whistle
I'm a pirate and I keep my loot
So I blew him out with my bazooka
...
C30 C60 C90 Go
...
From Wiki:
Their label at the time, EMI, refused to promote the cassingle "C30, C60, C90, Go" because it allegedly promoted home taping, as Side B was blank. EMI dropped the group after releasing its second single.

近日在讀陳智德的《愔齋讀書錄》,在其〈書痴的目錄學〉(www.cctak.com/essay/rev65.htm)論及梁文道的書評時說道:
在社會科學類中,有《出賣LMF:粗口音樂檔案》一書的評介,樂隊“LMF”創作的是音樂,儘管許多人以其語言粗俗而否定之,“LMF”的音樂確然是音樂,然而《出賣LMF》一書是社會科學,在這《書話》的分類及評介中,真正的含意是《出賣LMF》在梁的知識選擇系統及其觀念上的圖書館當中,是一種社會科學。梁文道其實看穿了《出賣LMF》一書的自省精神,並非由上而下的「研究」,而是以其音樂生產為個案,指向一種社會批評。
在本書中真正歸入音樂類的只有一本:《音樂殖民地》,這是九十年代香港以至華語搖滾樂界的重要刊物,出版十年,終於在二零零四年停刊;書話從其停刊談到香港文化中前衛、悲壯而無名的先行者宿命:“過去幾十年來的香港文化也是這般,走先鋒的時候走上一條暗夜之中無人能見的航道,點亮了異地上空之後就刷一下墜落墮地。”九七前的香港優勢,在於文化的多元和先行性,九七後至二千年代中的香港危機部份在於經濟,部份在於文化,然而今天所憂的邊緣化仍是憂前者,大概不知後者的邊緣化才更恐怖。有關《音樂殖民地》,梁文道真正談論的是香港許多人視而不見的文化危機,那麼這篇列為音樂類的評介,在其系列中相對於列入“政治學”的《從歷史看管理》等書,更接近於政治學。
近期mMK裡音樂與政治的關結,似乎要比傳統所謂的visual arts強得多。那天人們眾口在說香港政府一直沒有重視visual arts的發展,我卻想,這總比結果扶植一個比現時還要糟糕地於政治批判上沉默的圈子好吧?
