Song of the day
"Keeping Us Together", by Keith Hudson. Perhaps as surprising a connection as the one discovered (or "invented"?) on yesterday's Song of the Day, today we bring you Keith Hudson, emerging from the deepest darkest dub jungle with - believe it ... or not - the first line of the chorus of "Macho Man", by The Village People. Although, given those Jamaicans' tendency to borrow liberally from other sources, and given also that Hudson's "Nuh Skin Up" was originally released in 1979, the year after "Macho Man" appeared, you might well think that it is not surprising at all.
