You Must Learn (The Most Sampled Tracks of all Time).......2001-06-06

Though none of these tracks are very rare or unknown, every self-respecting funk afficianado and hip hop student should have them on the cd rack. The compilers included the tracks, from James Brown's "Funky Drummer" to Barry White's "I'm Gonna Love You A little Bit More Baby," based on how frequently they've been sampled by hip hop and R&B artists. The liner notes are meticulously-researched and yield up a gold mine of info about who sampled what. History aside, the bottom line is that evey one of these songs is a fistfull of funk pleasure, sure to get your booty and/or party moving.

A fantastic collection of old-skool breaks..........2002-05-23

There are quite a few of these breaks compilations out now, some quite obviously thrown together from tracks that have been sampled in a recent club tune or hip-hop track and suffering as a result from a lack of focus. This one is an exception - while most (if not all) of these tracks have been sampled to death, they still rock, they still sound fresh, and you can enjoy this disc again and again from front to back. Musicians can go to school on these prime examples of funk, and draw inspiration from the same place as all the old-skool block-rockers did - you might be unable to resist the urge to turn on the sampler and grab a few of these timeless breaks. Anyone who loves funky breaks, hip-hop, or the original organic funk that laid the foundation, you will appreciate the grooves on this CD. Highly recommended!
