20th Century Steel Band and the sample that will never die
Any excuse to use this pic of Doug E.
20th Century Steel Band - Heaven and hell is on earth
Just one track today I'm afraid but it's an absolute bonafide gem. I've only ever heart one song by the 20th Century Steel but it's enough to warrant edition here. Even more shocking is that I can't really tell you anything about the band themselves - maybe you will have more luck googling for details than me.
The reason why i'm posting this song is that it's been used in many many many hip hop tunes but, bizarrely, most of them sample the very opening of the song before the tune kicks in. It's most famous is probably still Doug E Fresh's Back In The Days though for a full run down check here.
The irony is that the song itself is a wicked little steel drums number with high pitched singing and a superb riff. If i ever start making music myself it'll be the first place i go to steal drums from.
If you want to pick up a copy of this song it's available off numerous beats/breaks compilations.

Hey, props to your dad for a quality piece of music!
Good to hear the guys in the band are still making music even if they have gone their seperate ways.
Many people have requested this song since I posted it so glad to report that the appreciation of the group is still very much alive.

The late, great, Salford Hip-Hop crew 'First Offence' sampled it heavily and added their own original lyrics on their song 'Heaven and Hell'. It was recorded for their debut LP 'Flowery Twats' during the mid 90's, but sadly never saw the light of day due to the LP's huge copyright expenses bill.
I got a copy off Billy Spiby from 'First Offence' a couple of years back, and the version of this song really is the dog's bollocks.

I am selling a fantastic copy of this bomb on ebay...

Generic Viagra (sildenafil citrate; brand names include: Aphrodil / Edegra / Erasmo / Penegra / Revatio / Supra / Zwagra) is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction regardless of the cause or duration of the problem or the age of the patient.
Sildenafil Citrate is the active ingredient used to treat erectile dysfunction (impotence) in men. It can help men who have erectile dysfunction get and sustain an erection when they are sexually excited.
Generic Viagra is manufactured in accordance with World Health Organization standards and guidelines (WHO-GMP). Also [url=twitter.com/iuyjopg]Viagra Sales Market[/url] you can find on our sites.
Generic [url=http://fovunec.freehostia.com]Ordering Viagra to Canada[/url] is made with thorough reverse engineering for the sildenafil citrate molecule - a totally different process of making sildenafil and its reaction. That is why it takes effect in 15 minutes compared to other drugs which take 30-40 minutes to take effect.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
