It has been sampled by Wu-Tang Clan but I knew it from this. Always a moment when the source is revealed for a sound you have had in your head for years Never heard that, it’s really good 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chazzy Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I'll dip my toe in... linked to @Bunion 'police in helicopter' a couple of pages back I discovered Ernest Ranglin last week.
