See where artists like Public Enemy, Drake, Kanye West, Fatboy Slim, Jay Z and Daft Punk plunder all their amazing sounds from via the likes of Shirley Bassey, KC & The Sunshine Band, Chic, Curtis Mayfield and even Lulu.
It’s a richly rewarding and entertaining musical adventure across 2CDs revealing the sources of some of the biggest hits in pop, rock, hip hop and dance and showing what great original tracks they are in their own right.
