It's from the album POWER OF SOUL off the CTI/Kudu Label. Feat. Grover Washington
on Sax (who also wrote the piece), Bob James on organ and other members of the
"CTI Allstars". This album is quite unique too - there's that distinctive skip in
Loran's Dance just before the horn section pops in - which is why in the Beastie
Boys track you hear DJ Hurricane jumping the needle back to the start of the
organ riff. I guess there was a defect in the original pressing. It would be interesting
to hear any reissue of that song on vinyl or CD.

shanti,
