Can anybody tell me where the spoken samples come from in Big Audio Dynamite's 'E=Mc2'? And what are the people saying in them?

Much as I hate to answer my own question, the samples are... "I don't like music" "'Why don't you play us a tune pal?' 'I don't like music' 'Comical little geezer. You'll look funny when you're fifty." "You know I don't think I'm going to let you stay in the film business" "Things have changed" "I like a bit of a cavort, I don't listen to solicitor's letters. I apply a bit of pressure." "United we stand, divided we're lumbered" "Who do you think you are, the Lone Ranger?" "You're Jack the Lad" "Putting a little stick about. Putting the fire into those flash little twerps" "He's an ingorant boy. An out of date boy" "The man's dead, and who's left holding the sodding baby?" "They're a bunch of liars and wrigglers. Give 'em a bit of stick." Taken from the 1970 film "Performance"

Just to prove someone else read your question, even though I can't add to your own excellent answer... fantastic song. Thanks for reminding me of it!

E=Mc2 is about films by the director Nic Roeg (think that is the correct spelling) Films mentioned are Performance, The Man Who Fell To Earth and Don't Look Now. The first B.A.D. album was great.

Also mentioned is the film Insignificance (1985)
