Sing a sampled song: (clockwise from left) Björk used a voice sample of one of her songs for 2004’s Desired Constellation; no live footage exists of country-soul star Arthur Alexander; Ken Dodd’s mega-hit Tears…; ex-music scribe Chrissie Hynde.

Let us sort out those rock’n’roll queries and musical arguments.
On Shaving Is Boring from Hatfield And The North’s debut album there’s a Goons-like interlude with footsteps running from one channel to the other. On arrival, a door opens, through which we hear a sample of a piece from this very album. Other than The Devil’s Triangle from King Crimson’s
In The Wake Of Poseidon,
which sampled
In The Court Of The Crimson King,
are there other bands that have sampled their own work?
Tarquin Wood, Ovington, Northumberland
