It is an early instrumental of I Wanted To Tell Her
i was watching a lolla retro. and in this clip they show ice cube playing, who went on before ministry,with all ministry’s bone set-up in the back. i’ve seen longer clips with him playing with all there bones in the background http://www.mtv.com/videos/news/548101/ice-cube-joins-the-lolla-92-lineup.jhtml#id=1644924 (ohh captin save me)
it’s dorky but cool. also thees a clip of nin breaking shit in 91.
p.s. anyone ever see ministry in a festival environment prior to them being dropped by warners? i allway’s thought it was cool that they require a second p.a. system spec. for ministry

I really don’t think an artist can rip off himself per-se, I find when I experiment with music I tend to do similar riffs, bends, licks, phrases over and over again… I mean come on there are at least ten or more Ministry songs that use that DAH-DUH (guitar chords before the sample says “a new world order”) at some point in the song. But hey I know what you are getting at, just having fun dissecting the songs!
Still, it reminds me of the whole legal fiasco with John Fogerty from Creedence Clearwater Revival (if you don’t like Creedence, go fuck yourself BTW, seriously!) where the record label that owned the Creedence recordings sued Fogerty and the record label he had been recording under as a solo artist for copyright infringement, basically saying that a song from his 80’s solo album sounded too much like a song from his 60’s album when he was a member of Creedence. He literally had to take his guitar into the courtroom and demonstrate the difference between the two song!!!
The case got thrown out of court because he demonstrated the songs were legally different enough to not be ripping one off, but I say the who idea is hogwash, cause obviously any musician is going to do similar riffs/phrases/chord progressions throughout his career and he/she should not be sued based on personal style just because his record label changes!!!
I’m glad he won, otherwise we’d be seeing shit like Warners suing Al for “Bloodlines stealing from So What” or something like that.

Absolutely. Artists should have formed a consensus long ago that they would not relinquish the rights to their songs to record companies. It’s sickening to think that these companies not only get rich off the sweat and talent of other people but that they can own the fruits as well.
CREEDENCE FTW!!!
CREEDENCE FTW!!!
you read my mind dude.
when i studied copyright law, one of our main cases we studied was the creedence vs. john fogerty.
Yeah, CCR were damned cool.
