Two heavyweights of British music join forces in a very surprising way. MASSIVE ATTACK mastermind Robert Del Naja aka 3D reworked The Right Stuff, a tune off Chasing Yesterday, this year’s album by NOEL GALLAGHER’s HIGH FLYING BIRDS. And according to Mr. Gallagher it’s an idea that’s been 20 years in the making. He explains: ‘I remember being at The Brits in ’95 and D offering to do a Massive Attack re-mix of ‘Cast No Shadow’. The idea was never followed through and it’s something I’ve regretted ever since. It’s nice to finally scratch the itch somewhat.’
Del Naja actually did two versions of the song which will be released on a limited 12” vinyl via The Vinyl Factory on July the 31st. Listen to the first version right here.
