If you are all down with Saul Williams check out the 12" he did fer the
U.K. hip hop label Big Dada. It is called 'Elohim (1972) and has a wicked
B-side track called 'Twice the First Time). The 12" might be hard to
find, so these tracks can also be found onthe Bid Dada compilation "Black
Whole Styles" (along with Abstract Rude, Roots Manuva, and New Flesh For
Old, etc.). There is also a sampler 12" to the soundtrack of 'Slam' that
has three poetry excerpts from the film on it (including the wicked one
he does in the prison courtyard).
