Step On
"He's Gonna Step On You Again" (a.k.a. "Step On") is a song originally performed by John Kongos (co-written by Kongos and Christos Demetriou) and first released in 1971. The song, released by Fly Records, entered the UK Singles Chart on 22 May 1971 and spent 14 weeks on the chart, peaking at No. 4. Covers of the song have been chart successes several times, including for the Happy Mondays in 1990. It was cited in the Guinness Book of Records as being the first song to have used a sample, however, according to the sleeve note of the CD reissue of the Kongos album, it is actually a tape loop of African drumming, and the use of tape loops and instruments using prerecorded samples such as the Mellotron and Optigan were well established by this time.
