• In 1976, the 20 th Century Steel Band released their debut Warm Heart, Cold<br />
Steel. It proved to be a landmark album, and featured the track “Heaven & Hell<br />
Is On Earth,” sampled on J-Lo’s huge hit “Jenny from the Block.”<br />
• The band’s appearance on New Faces in 1974 (the equivalent of American<br />
Idol) catapulted them to fame. They won a lucrative recording deal with the<br />
now-defunct united Artists, and were invited onto Tv and radio programs,<br />
including a session on the late John Peel’s radio show. Sadly, the band split<br />
up shortly after.<br />
• Now, after 30 years, original members Michael Oliviere and godfran Moore<br />
have reformed the group with a new line-up and are re-releasing their seminal<br />
album on Mr Bongo records. Warm Heart, Cold Steel is an upbeat, feel-good<br />
album of 13 tracks recorded against a backdrop of seductive steel drum.<br />
• The infectious, instantly recognizable hook of the heavily sampled track<br />
“Heaven & Hell” has appeared in Black Eyed Peas’ “Say Goodbye,” Xzibit’s<br />
“los Angeles Times,” LL Cool J’s “Todd Smith,” and Salt-n-Pepa’s “very<br />
Necessary,” to name just a few.<br />
• Although sampling 20CSB was widespread, it was also done without the<br />
band’s knowledge or permission. composer Michael Oliviere successfully<br />
sued for unpaid royalties, and received recognition for his contribution to<br />
music with awards from BMI and AScAP.<br />
