Malcolm McLaren - Buffalo Gals & Double Dutch
stored in: music, video

In 1983 British impresario Malcolm McLaren released Duck Rock, an album which mixed up influences from Africa and America, including hip-hop. The album proved to be highly influential in bringing hip-hop to a wider audience in the UK. Two of the singles from the album (”Buffalo Gals” and “Double Dutch”) became major chart hits on both sides of the Atlantic.

    just watched the two Malcolm McClaren videos and had a very nostalgic 10 minutes - I’m a 50 yr old graphic designer who experienced the whole punk, new romantic and early hip-hop period from ‘77-’84 here in London. It’s only now looking back that I realise just how influential McClaren was. Thanks for bringing back so many memories through that link.
    I like you site and what you are doing - found it through ’stumble!’
