"Paint a picture of someone you love, perhaps someone who is not here with us today."

[Ishitoneveryone]

@777PlanBskater failed attempt at some sort of mystical wisdom that you thought people were going to find cool.

[777PlanBskater]

@Ishitoneveryone no actually its a quote from the boondocks. Nice try though.

[Ishitoneveryone]

@777PlanBskater yea i know. the dude w/ the fro said it to riley. you still suck thought.

[777PlanBskater]

@Ishitoneveryone I suck thought? Now how much sense does that make

[Ishitoneveryone]

@777PlanBskater sorry, typo :). you suck though.

[777PlanBskater]

@Ishitoneveryone your mom does to if you catch my drift.

[Ishitoneveryone]

@777PlanBskater laaaame!

A white hippy saxophonist in sandles does not make it on to prestigious Impulse records in the 70's without having some chops.

[DankulousTV]

[Apathesis0]

Dear hip-hop, thank you for helping me find tons more awesome music to listen to. I only wish there were more black musicians out there in bands. It's like 90% white unless you want blues. Where's the black rock and funk? It needs to come back.

I want to hear what Pete would sound like on a synth or bass. It could be crazy...

[namkooc]

black funk what you talking about you never heard of james brown lol

[Apathesis0]

@namkooc Reread what I wrote. I was clearly complaining about the lack of NEW black rock and funk. Sure I can listen to Fatback, James Brown, Cameo, Parliament, etc whenever but I'd like to hear newer music instead of the trash rap and R&B that is out these days.

[namkooc]

ok my bad yea i hear that there isa lot of bullshit out today :(

[TheFrigginArchitect]

@Apathesis0 You've got to give it up for the Roots though

[benji46]

so nostalgic

so ill

[antoniodespenteado]

@peacenlove1989 I'm so sorry I was distracted and pressed vote down when I really meant to comment ! Just to let you know that impulse has reissued this abum and you can find it in shops as a cd or Lp. In the uk cheapest price would be honestjons I believe.

Today, upon learning of this 1967 artist, I've become smarter. It's all thanks to the uploader, Boondocks, and Reminisce over you Troy.

TYVM for posting the album name in your under bar. I was organizing my iTunes music and this helped. =)

[wyavp]

It was mostly recreated on the Pete Rock track by his cousin and sax player Mike Phillips

[groovivi]

[capnshep]

@mrcorkylennox241 Wish I could find this jewel in a thrift store or garage sale. Hell, I'd be happy to pay $150 for a copy these days... lol!

[rickylascaze001]

Wow I thought Pete Rock made up the bass part on T.R.O.Y. but he sampled that as well, listen from 0:56 - 1:13 you'll hear the bass part he used he just put effects to get rid of the vocals. I'm thinking of remaking T.R.O.Y. with my own twist, I'm a producer so I was able to notice the bass part that he used.

[dmarcusmilez]

@rickylascaze001 nah he replayed it

he replayed most of it actually

[KPrime05]

@rickylascaze001 Actually he didn't even filter the vocals out. You can still here the "ooh"s in there pretty clearly. That record was so dope that it really didn't matter how he did it as long as it was dope though.

[flailoutmovement]

similak child

[GwizRuiz]

@flailoutmovement Jefferson Airplane version was used by Black Sheep

[flailoutmovement]

@GwizRuiz oh your right, sounds almost the same, i didn't know there was two versions of the original...

[feeltherealness]

one of the most atmospheric songs I've ever heard

[wesleypeabody]

Beautiful.



[gsian187]

Loved it when I heard it in The Boondocks aswell, originial idea to put the sampled song in instead of TROY. Thank you Pete Rock for introducing me to this :D

[micpar89]

i just want to drive around in the desert to the intro looped forever. I love how first word comes in late...it's the little things.

[Debaser11]

I rarely prefer a cover over the original version, but this is definitely an exception. Thanks for the upload.

[Shea354]
