He's done a whole load on the Soopastole label featuring his Mum and her boyfriend :-
I distinctly remember when I played this to my mam for the first time. To begin with, she was very pleased to hear Labi Siffre's sweet soulful vocals, and started to tap her foot along to the groovy beat. But then the bit that Dr. Dre sampled suddenly came on and she flew into a furious rage, thinking that I had tricked her into listening to Eminem (who she abhors because of his bad language and flagrant disregard for our lord and saviour, Jesus Christ the Redeemer). However, just as she was about to tear the needle off the record and have her toyboy Gavin thrash me to within an inch of my life, Labi's vocals thankfully kicked back in and she realized the error of her ways. Oh, how we all laughed!!
