BARGAIN BASEMENT: LIONROCK / LAURENT GARNIER
Another couple of tracks from the Serious Road Trip promo from a few days ago. This time, Justin Robertson as Lionrock (or Lion Rock as it was then) and French legend Laurent Garnier. The album from which the 12″ was taken was released as a fundraising CD, through Melody Maker/IPC Magazines and The Serious Road Trip Charity for their work in Bosnia.
The SRT site says: In autumn 1994 TSRT also released its very own triple CD dance compilation, backed by Melody Maker magazine and artists such as The Orb, Drum Club, Transglobal Underground and Leftfield. The proceeds supported projects for more than a year, and were complemented by visits from artists such as ex-Iron Maiden lead singer Bruce Dickinson and chart-topping band Dodgy. MTV’s ‘Blah Blah Blah’ magazine later dubbed TSRT “the world’s most rock’n’roll aid organisation.”
The Lion Rock track would be reworked for release on the Tripwire single as “Tripwire (The Prankster’s Soundtrack)”.
Lion Rock – Soundtrack In A Palace Of Delights
Laurent Garnier – Rex Attitude

I Have the triple CD & always thought ‘Soundtrack ..’ was by far the outstanding track (that I hadn’t heard prior) – the intro is killer.
Glad you came back & stayed back lol
