Hee Cup and Hook Up (Unity 533) are two totally different tunes...that is...I can't hear Hook Up behind the organ and DJ on Hee Cup

his last work before he sadly died in a car accident on the way home from the w.i.r.l. studios.

actually Jackie Opel got deported back to Barbados and then died in 1970 (the car crash was right) after helping invent 'spouge' music there

you right Pete, but RKR says "Hook Up" to the matrix, but actually itÂ´s this what the Palmer bros named "Hee Cup" the DJ version :thumbsup:
