hey guys, for all of you that like playing 'spot the sample', and are interested in the history of music; here's an amazing resource for you
Clicking an album will pull up who sampled it and for what, cross referencing it with any other samples from the same LP or by the same sampler - subsequently making this the best musical interactive graph ever.
87!!! samples for Sly And The Family Stone's"Stand"!
4!!! for a recent Sting LP!!?!?!!!

Ohhhhhh, how much fun is THAT? That's me for the night, then. I assume it can expand as necessary, too...
Ho lee shit. Thanks, Blimpy.
Hey, there's a mistake! Rapper's Delight didn't "sample" Good Times, it was the SugarHill Records house band playing on that song.
oh man, i feel like i'm driving on the wrong side of the road....
I know, right?
Should we write a letter to warn them?
it's all a bit green as well. something should be done!
ejaydee - if there's gonna be a graph, then it HAS to be an accurate graph, right?
That's what I was thinking. And I wasn't gonna say anything, but the scale looks a bit off to me.
Wooooaaaahhh. I don't know about this... I'll give it a day because I know these things need to be given a chance, but I'm generally anti-green as a principle.
please change it...!!
my ms got a tea pot this colour..it could have been it.
I spray painted it blue and put some soil in it for the garden.
not many things get to me but small petty thing like a colour..I'll do a stamp stamp stamp sulk....
no chance..pure visual no no for me.
I SO HATE THIS COLOUR.
Well, I do like green, as a color, but I don't think we needed a change.
Why does the graph only go to 2004?
It's strange who they chose to include and who is not there at all. Wonder how they picked.
i was just trying to be eco friendly....The Spill is the only blog that reuses carrier bags, and recycles music endlessly!!
We're "Back To Brown", just like Amy Winehouse!
Arf! Two jokes for the price of one there, god I'm good!!!
..
it's a bit odd re-reading this..no-one else is going to know what we are on about now.
good jokes!
-shane, that;'s too funny; i just re-read them - you'd never be able to guess what's being talked about at all!!
I read the comments last night after our dinner guests had left, on my e-mail, without looking at the 'Spill, and I can assure you it was most surreal.
