What's with the obsession with looking at everything in terms of "samples" kiddies? - this is a SONG, not a free piece for your damned third-rate musical jigsaw hobby!
@drwhatson When done right, sampling is an art. REAL hip hop heads always apprieciate the original songs/oldies. 90% of sampling is about the search, so producers spend hours and hours listening to and becoming fans of oldies like this. Sampling also gives new life to songs that would otherwise be forgotten, as cratediggers try to find the original songs sampled by their favorite producers.
@LaidBackLewisBlack I heard this album 30-odd years ago and these artists are FAR from "forgotten". Many people all over the world know their music very well, without waiting for them to be sampled. (Gene Redding even had a UK release on Capitol at the time). There are several other great recordings on the Haven label, by such as Evie Sands and Margo Thunder. Do we have to wait for some so-called "producer" to do their homework before they are properly appreciated?
@drwhatson not at all... I was just trying to point out that sampling introduces the music to young people who would otherwise be unlikely to listen to the song for what it is, which is unfortunate because even I feel that music back in the day (before my time) was made with a lot more soul and meaning.
@LaidBackLewisBlack Quite, however I was into earlier recordings too when I was young (ie. 60's Soul), then continued buying contemporary Soul releases right through the 70s and early 80's - until it "went electro", however am still actively involved in the 4K Soul music scene, as are most of my friends, many of whom also DJ. I just wonder why there is such a passion for the music here in the UK, and such (seeming) indifference among US Black American youth in particular?
@drwhatson i honestly think its because there's a gap between the generations. Many African American youth in the U.S. don't inderstand where they came from. They are ignorant to the history of their own people. I am one of the few young black people in the U.S. that actually appreciate the music for what it is, and most of the time that means being outcasted by the majority of others, unfortunately.
@LaidBackLewisBlack my man LaidBack understands it all. i do spend hours listenin to forgotten music, searchin is a big part of sampling, ive also become a fan of many differnt genres of music because of sampling, i love diggin through records. big ups
@thebrotherhoodbeachz "Different strokes for different folks?" (Sly & Family Stone) - and how many times has Sly's music been shamelessly ripped off by the sampler generation? As an excuse it just won't do.
THANK YOU !!!
