Props guys!
Cold Crushin cats with these sets. Keep it going, becuase I don’ts get enough of it.
hey kevin from what song is the sample of the bassline on “go with the flow”
Not sure what the baseline is for “Go with the Flow”. Drums come from James Brown song.
The baseline (and flute) for Go With The Flow is actually “Burning Spear” by S.O.U.L., which is listed here as being used for “Mecca and the Soul Brother”.

We had it correct on this.
thanks bastid
So the “Funky Drummer” used on this wasn’t the original one (with actual “lyrics”), pts 1 and 2, but rather the re-done break-only? Definitely prefer the original, ‘cos you hear sweet tee’s “its my beat” all over it:)
j.
good lookin once again
