Diana Ross was used on Biggie - Mo' Money mo' Problems.
That Chaka Khan track is the backbone of Stardust - Music Sounds Better.

There are plenty of unlikely samples here: http://www.egotripland.com/category/sample-flips-2/

I'll play mboy's game -
Diana Ross - dunno
Just Brothers is another FBS one (Right about now..etc)
Quincy Jones - My Definition of a Boombastic Jazz Style (Definition of Sound?)
Then Praise You & De La Soul's Magic Number.
Recognise Chaka Khan, but can't place it.
Herbie - that's Groove is In the Heart

Diana Ross sampled by... Notorious B.I.G in "Mo Money, Mo Problems"

Just Brothers... Fatboy Slim "Funk Soul Brother"

Quincy Jones... Dream Warriors "My Definition of a Boombastic Jazz Style"

Camille Yarborough... Fatboy Slim again "Praise You"

Bob Dorough... Like that wasn't easy! De La Soul indeed

Chaka Khan... Stardust "Music Sounds Better With You"... One of Thomas Bangalter's alter ego's that also destroyed the UK pop chart for weeks!

Herbie Hancock... Dee-lite "Groove is in the Heart" indeed... Though that track also used several other samples (as did most listed above actually!)

Here's one for ya... Where was this sampled...?

Now let's flip it round... This one has been sampled LOADS in all sorts of tracks since... But Bambaataa get his samples from originally? A small clue, some of the last places you'd expect a former gang leader from the Bronx to be getting samples from!

I can't link (or view 🙁 ) videos on this NHS library computer, but one of my faves is the way Janis Joplin's [i]Ball and Chain[/i] got translated into an Italian house tune - A.S.H.A.'s [i]J.J.Tribute[/i] - which itself was then ripped off for a couple of rave/jungle tracks...

That Clash track posted above actually uses the drums off this. I looked for it for ages (it's also been sampled for loads of hip hop and rave records) and never thought it might be a Kool and the Gang track - turns out they used to be an amazing funk band before heading down the road of disco cheese.

"Planet Rock"'s basically a mix of "Trans Europe Express" and "Numbers" by Kraftwerk innit. And supposedly borrows a bit from this, not sure it I can hear it though:

They also hired a Fairlight synth to make the "whole orchestra playing at once" hit that starts it off.

Bloody Hell, Rewski and Mr Agreeable on the ball! 😀

OK then... Who did Timmy Vegas nick the chords from this off? (incidentally, he replayed the whole thing, met him the other week, he told me when he actually met the guy who recorded the original a few years back he was bricking it!)

This one by Sabres Of Paradise in ´93 owes everything to Lamont Booker, most people assumed it was an original track at the time although writing credits are on the record sleeve (i checked).

Remix

Original

Paul's Boutique must be the most diverse collection of sampling. Took me years to recognise Time by the Floyd in barrel of a gun.

pretty much the the most fun you can have with the internet is to track down all the samples off that album

a favourite of mine being

but this one for Jimmy James is a corker too

Some classic tunes in this, heavy on the soul and hip hop, which is never a bad thing. Just played Gardmaster Flash - White Lines and my wife said that she liked it.

Which means I can start playing the Besties in the house again.

If mashups count;

Rock in Black.

AC/DC, Queen, Crowded House, some Zepp, a tiny bit of Ozzy, a snippet of Snoop and some John Lennon.

It was such a long track and just made you dizzy - like watching scalextrix for too long

the B side of the 12" was great as well - somehow the instrumental was even zanier without the lyrics and "La Di Da Di" was so sleazy

I remember playing this loads when it came out:

and someone saying "That sounds just like 'Melody Nelson'".

Didn't figure out what he was talking about for a while, and up until then I'd always associated Serge Gainsbourg with novelty sleaze-pop like "Je T'aime..." So thank you David Holmes.

Madlib and Dilla are the masters of sampling.

Kanye's not bad either...
