Speaking of 'sample sniffing, another of the Polydor James Brown re-issues, called "In the Jungle Groove" has the "funky drummer" cut that launched a thousand hardcore and hip hop tracks, along with a 3 minute track of just Clyde Stubblefield drumming with James emitting occasional yelps. That and "I Got To Move","Soul Power", and "Hot Pants." HOT PANTS!
