I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a Breaks thread.

There is a funky drum break in the track

The break is at the 3 minute mark of that track above.

The start of this track has the open drums:

A very heavily sampled break towards the end of this track. It was even used by Snow in Informer as far as I recall.

Forty two seconds into this, there's a slight but ever so sweet break.

Picked this record up on a whim. $3. Nice break at the start of this kinda funky soulful number.

Drums at the beginning. Was gonna post in the disco thread but this is more boogie than disco to me.

You probably heard the Ice Cube track that sampled it, you may even know the sample came from an Isley Brother's track. But have you heard this cover of Footsteps?
