There's a song in my playlist where they play a recording of someone calling a hotel and asking them to page "Haile Selassie". I never understood the reference until now!
The Orb's "Towers of Dub"? Genius.com says this song's sample was a "prank call was made by Victor Lewis Smith, a British film, television and radio producer, a TV and restaurant critic, a satirist and newspaper columnist."
