A1. Help Is On The Way (edit)
B1. Ike's Mood (edit)

Classic samples on 45.
The Whatnauts, Help Is on the Way. Released as a single in 1981, this hard to find 45 is a
certified Funk Disco Boogie classic! An infectious bass line over a head nodding drum groove,
this is one for the steppers. Instantly recognisable as the sample source for Del La Soul’s “Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)” Hip Hop classic, you might also recognise it for lending a riff or two for Fat Larry’s Band, “Act Like you Know”.
Isaac Hayes. Ike’s Mood. Released as the lead Single from the 1970 album “…To Be Continued” this Soul Jazz classic unwittingly became a huge source of inspiration for the sampling generation. Sampled almost 200 times, the brass section, drums and an unforgettable piano hook have been used to form the basis for classic releases by Biz Markie, Mary J. Blige, Nas and Massive Attack to name only a few.
