Can anyone help me with any information about the following record
that I picked up while raking through the bargain bins in my local
store?

Raw Deal : Undercover E.P. (Bochit & Scarper BOS004)

This record is one of the finest that I have heard in a long time with
lots of jazz influences over funky hip hop beats that you just know is
going to get reviewed somewhere as 'sounding like the soundtrack to
the coolest 70's spy movie.' All four tracks are superb (unfortunatley
it was a white label and I have no track listing - help anyone) with 3
uptempo tracks (probably from the chase scenes :]) and 1 slower one
utilising the same horn sample as is used in the intro to Public
Enemy's 'Show 'Em Watcha Got' (can anyone identify this as well?).
Any information on any other releases by this group would be greatly
appreciated and if no-one has heard of them then I urge you to try and
track this down.

Colin.
