Super Breaks implicitly pays tribute to the whole of hip hop's sample culture starting with Herman Kelly's ultimate old school hip-hop break Dance To The Drummer's Beat which was popular with Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Bambaataa, Pleasure's Joyous which would have been in many a DJs' crate back in the day. Up-to-date - but also one of the earliest party breaks is Rufus Thomas' The Breakdown that has just been used on Ghostface Killah's latest album. Only on an album of break-beats could you possibly find the disparity between the raw and down right dirty funk of Wilbur Bascombe's Just A Groove In G and the sound of a British-based steel band - a vocal sample, well-used by many including Soul II Soul.
