I always kinda dug "A Deeper Shade of Soul" by the Urban Dance Squad. It might had something to do with not knowing anything about the band, other than what I could derive from a single video. What I do remember about it was the guitarist had a Flaco Jimenez t-shirt on, which gave them a point or two on the cool scale. And I remember that the video had some guys skating in a pool (which I found odd when I learned the band was from the Netherlands). It got lumped with those laid-back groove type of songs that I don't really clamor for, but dig when I hear.
I'd thought about posting it before, but when I found the original source material at Funky 16 Corners, I found the rationale. Funky 16 Corners is a dyn-o-mite blog that you'd do well to bookmark. Larry, the host, seems like such a nice guy, it always seems like you're in his living room when you read his posts. He posted Ray Barretto's original "Deeper Shade of Soul," the source of the sample on the later not-quite-a-cover.
