It actually surprises me that you would use the matter of how much or how many people care about something as a measure of its worth.TomViolenz wrote:But seriously if I remember the story right, it was from a track almost no one bought at the time, by people who vanished from attention directly after and then by some turn of fate one record ended up in the hands of one of the early hip-hoppers years later, who sampled the break
And that's when it got known.
Sorry that to my says the success belongs to that hip hopper, because on its own in its original context no one cared about the break.
So they got lucky to even get that much attention out of it.
