Show summary

Biz Markie’s “I Need a Haircut” was withdrawn due to a sample from Gilbert O’Sullivan’s “Alone Again (Naturally)”. The album was later released without the offending song. Contrary to our top-of-head recollection, Vanilla Ice’s “Ice Ice Baby” wasn’t exactly the first song with legal sampling issues. That title is likely held by “Pump Up the Volume” by M|A|R|R|S. It seems like the only available video where Vanilla Ice explains the difference is from VH-1’s “I Love the ’90s”. Also, as mentioned in the Wikipedia about sampling, “in a 1990 interview, Van Winkle said the two melodies were slightly different because he had added an additional note.”
