Great musical minds think alike?

Back in 1994, one-hit wonders US3 had a top ten hit with a song called “Cantaloop,” which was sort of a hip-hop take on Herbie Hancock’s “Canteloupe Island.” I hadn’t heard the song in a long time, although I had bought the CD when it came out.

This past Friday, David Dye on WXPN played the song to begin his 5-7 pm “Funky Friday” show. Later that evening, several songs into his weekly show, Weasel featured the same song.

Coincidence? I think not.
