Blue Boy – Remember Me (Original 12″)

 

From Scottish DJ Lex Blackmore (aka BlueBoy), we have his 1997 dance hit, “Remember Me”.  The track is built around two samples from “Woman of the Ghetto“, a 1969 soul song by Marlena Shaw. From wiki:

“The original song [“Woman of the Ghetto] is polemic to legislators delivered by a woman from a black American ghetto. Near the end is the line: “Remember me? I’m the one who had your babies”, in reference to black maids raising white children for little pay in America. This sample is repeated throughout “Remember Me”, as is a sample of a scat portion of the refrain.”
