Most unusual samples for well known records



I’ve thought about it and yes, yes you can.
Joking aside, great thread. I love all of this type of stuff, sample trivia and what not.
I made an entire playlist quiz for my mates during lockdown where they had to guess who the song playing was sampled by.
Most were pretty easy, but slipped a few sly ones in there.

So back on topic.
As mentioned, the Amen, Brother (Amen Break) sample is likely the most sampled song of all time.
The reason I made the Lyn Collins Joke, is that this is largely considered to be the second most sampled song of all time. Source of the famous 'Think Break' at 1:22, 1:34, 2.01 and the solo shaker loop at 2:21 🤓



Produced by James Brown as well. Such a fantastic track! 🕺
 


Better than the Beyonce tune that sampled it NEA

Went straight in search of it when you posted had - no idea that was the basis for so many tunes - albeit I recognised most of these but think it’s also on The 900 number (45 king) and Rob Base and DJ Easy Rock It Takes Two
