            Never realized that before, but now that you say it, you're right. The
    nice shuffle beat is clearly sampled from Take 5 (cut up tho).

            Well, I think the comp is OK. There are other good tracks as well, for
    example Airto Moerira's "Celebration Suite" (the insane batucade
    percussion slammer) and Lou Rawls' sugar & honey soul jazz version of
    "The Girl from Ipanema". =)
