    **As sampled by De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest!**

    While "You Forget Too Easy" could be played on any lowrider mixtape, "I'm So Glad I Found You" featuring Linda Jones is the perfect Northern soul floor fller. The beatmakers & producers are given their share too, with the drum breaks of the groovy "Why Can't People Be Colors Too?" And to make this reissue even more collectable, Playoff Records added the funky 80s disco/ boogie heat of "Help is on the Way", sampled by De La Soul as the perfect bonus track. A must have for any diggers or soul music fans.
