The Magic Disco Machine: Scratchin' [1975]

available on Super Disco Brake's Volume One

"Super Disco Brake's" (sic), released by Paul Winley Records in 1979, is a fabulous compilation of early breakbeat songs. "Scratchin'" sounds very familiar to me, though I couldn't tell you where it's been sampled (...little help, anyone?). The SQ on this is admittedly flawed, but until I track down a CD version from Japan or whatever, this will have to do.

For other tracks from Super Disco Brake's Volume One see here and here.

  2. Thanks, dude! Looking over that list, I guess I know it mainly from "The Bridge." It's all coming together now...
