great movie BTW
The Incredible Bongo band;
The group's best known work is probably their percussion-centric cover of "Apache", originally a worldwide hit in 1960 by The Shadows. It was later sampled heavily by hip hop artists (and, over a decade later, drum 'n' bass artists) to become one of the most popular sampled percussion breaks of all time.
The Art Laboe and Preston Epps instrumental "Bongo Rock" was also covered by Viner's pick-up outfit as "Bongo Rock '73" (a minor US chart hit), along with a cover of "Let There Be Drums", much influenced by the "surf-style" treatments of Paul Buff's drum-oriented works.
Jerry Butler Jr.;
American rhythm'n'blues, soul, funk and disco vocalist, songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist, active from 1958-2025.
Former member of The Impressions, long time associate of Curtis Mayfield. Co-writer of Otis Redding’s “I've Been Loving You Too Long”. He has duetted with Betty Everett, Brenda Lee Eager, Thelma Houston and Gene Chandler; collaborated with Exuma and Jerry Peters for the blaxploitation soundtracks “Joe Original Soundtrack” and “Melinda (Original Music From The Motion Picture)”. He was also an American politician, serving as Commissioner for Cook County, Illinois, from 1985 until 2018. He's in the Rock and Roll HOF!
