LB Bad – New Age of Faith

Was listening to The Sabres of Paradise – Smokebelch earlier, and reminded me that this was effectivly a remake of LB Bad’s tune called New Age of Faith. I have read some stories that the song was never credited to LB, not sure if that is true, as some say it was credited to LB on Smokebelch II. Either way Sabres must have made a shed load of cash from the remake, and reading comments from LB on youtube, he did not get a look into that. But I guess the success came down to the Sabres giving this tune new light and exposure, as LB’s version was seldom heard if at all back in the days. Cannot say I have ever heard it on a late 80’s mix tape. I actually really like LB’s version, but for me the beatless mix by the Sabres is so lush, it makes you just melt into the sand.
