Remember My Song

Remember My Song is the fifth studio album by British musician Labi Siffre. Released in 1975, it was the first of Siffre's two albums released that year, the other being Happy.

Composition and recording
It was co-produced by session guitarist Big Jim Sullivan and record producer Derek Lawrence. Siffre wrote or co-wrote all tracks on the album with the exception of "Old Time Song", which was written by studio musicians Chas Hodges and Dave Peacock, who later became known as the duo Chas & Dave. Like all of Siffre's previous albums, Remember My Song was released on the Pye International record label. ==Legacy==
Legacy
The album lingered in obscurity for many years until 1999 when the beginning song "I Got The..." was sampled by the American rappers Eminem and Dr. Dre for Eminem's first hit single "My Name Is". This newfound interest in Siffre's work led to "I Got The..." being released as a single in 2003 on the Stateside record label, with a larger collection of Siffre tracks being reissued in 2006. ==Track listing==
