Favourite drum samples and the records they are sampled from

[Bad Tempered Clavier]

The other day I was listening to Color Blind by Ice Cube (from his 1991 album Death Certificate); I have always loved that beat/groove which was sampled from Pungee by The Meters (from their 1969 album Look-Ka Py Py).

I think this is a good example of a great beat used to very good effect as a sampled loop. Can any one name any other favourites?

 

[Anthony Amodeo]

I always loved the Kool and the Gang N.T. sample on Nas It Aint Hard To Tell.

Chuck Brown and the Soul Searchers song Ashleys Roach Clip on Eric B. & Rakim Paid in Full

Melvin Bliss Synthetic Substitution on Public Enemy My Uzi Weighs a Ton, and De La Soul Mille Pulled a Pistol...

also ...I know its been sampled more than almost anything I always loved how Sublime used James Brown Funky drummer for their Grateful Dead cover of Scarlet Begonias

Anything DJ Premier samples!

Maybe the Beatles Bassline in the song "eggman."

 

[Ground Pounder]

My favorites aren't drum samples- Sly Stone's You Can Make It If You Try and James Brown's Give It Up Or Turn It Loose on Ice Cube's The Product- that whole record AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted is a sampling masterpiece. Also Thelonious Monk's Black And Tan Fantasy on Wu Tang Clan's Shame on a ___.

The IC and WTC links are NSFW, by the way...

I recently discovered these Super Breaks collections (they go from 1 - 4, possibly plus other). They're compilations of the original tracks sampled in loads of hip hop, which means mostly some superb late 60s funk and soul

Wu Tang Clan's Shame on a ___

That's a tune: do you know where the beat came from?

Nice find - cheers.
