VA - Samples Outta L.A. - Soul (2016)

The original tracks sampled & selected by the producers were essentially ‘70s Soul music. And it’s the opportunity to groove to Smokey Robinson, Charles Wright, James Brown or Roy Ayers among others. The loops in the Barry White and Edwin Starr introductions remain eternal, while the Donny Hathaway song will always be associated to a Dr Dre classic. While Average White Band or Ohio Players bring a funky touch, Eddie Kendricks takes us on a smooth ride with his sweet and mellow Soul. Finally, a special tribute to Clarence Reid (who passed away recently) whose drum kick was used in a famous posse cut on “the chronic” album by Dr Dre.
