Review by ethan Oct 25, 2004 (edited over 5 years ago)

List of major samples:
Track 3 samples Paul Butterfield's "I Don't Wanna Go"; 8 samples Clarence "Fuzzy" Haskins' "Love Now Is Forever"; 10 samples Rare Earth's "I'm Losing You"; 11 features a sampled trumpet solo by Herb Alpert; 14 samples Mashmakan's "I Know I've Been Wrong"; 17 samples Freddie Hubbard's "Povo"; and 18 samples Jimmy McGriff's "Blue Juice."
Pretty underrated album that afficionados should likely reinvestigate since 1990s nostalgia is rising; BTW, "The Choice Is Yours" is a classic.
