Early examples of speak-a-pop, would have to be Richard Harris ("There are too many soldiers on my cross"), and worryingly Fish from Marillion, who was prone to go off into spoken ramblings.
Another one I'd forgotten is Isaac Hayes, who often talks about "ladies" or whatever for quite a while, before bursting into song. Similar in effect to "I Knew These People" on the "Paris, Texas" soundtrack LP. I like Richard Harris too. Lest we forget, Hawkwind also indulge in a spot of spoken word nonsense from time to time, including the lyric to top even Arab Strap's "then she wanked me off": "If you are making love it is imperative to bring all bodies to orgasm simulataneously." Not particularly revolting until you see pictures of Hawkwind and imagine them...well, bringing their bodies to orgasm simultaneously. In space. I'm thinking of using that Arab Strap lyric at the bottom of all my messages. Peter "and then she wanked me off" Arab Strap ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
