 w/o the bob james sample, it wouldn't be nearly as attractive...  on that 
 tip, another (though not as good) jungle tune that samples "westchester
lady"
 is by icons on "emotions w/intellect".  i don't remember the name of the
tune, 
 the promo i got is unlabeled.  icons (blame & justice) used the opening bass
 line rather than the piano lick.
