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.
