good fer nuthin' Disney b'stards!

I knew the Where's Wally? illustrator recycled loads of his crowd drawings across different pictures, often transposing them, but I didn't realise Disney did the same.

Shocking. My childhood in tatters. Etc.

....and the Dave's Music Tank Deja Vu!*

Simply select a short sequence of text from anywhere on DMT's Worldsoundz blog (http://worldsoundz.livejournal.com/?skip=10), paste it into Google and Hey Presto!, you will find the original source of the writing. (That Stars lp review is directly from an Amazon review)

In actual fact this practice ('biting'?) can be found on numerous blogs but DMT is definitely the Grand Master. It's also often seen on popular internet record sale sites. The description of Palma Violets on the Rough Trade site is repeated at Normans, Phonica, Picadilly etc etc.. (Do they really have time to re-invent the wheel though?)

*Thanks to the VG+ Forum thread on The Funk and Soul Forum (http://www.verygoodplus.co.uk/showthread.php?35980-The-old-Funk-amp-Soul-Forum)for the reminder / heads-up on this!
