Weather Report - Sweetnighter (1973) [Full Album] - Video
PUBLISHED:  Jun 15, 2015
DESCRIPTION:
"Oh, yeah, if you listen to the drum beat on '125th Street Congress' that beat is the original hip-hop beat. I played that years before it was recorded. That particular beat has since been used by at least 55 or 60 rap groups, even until now. I did get credit and paid for that, which is a good thing. That was the first time the hip-hop beat was recorded, but I didn't call it that. Peter Erskine used to call it the Zawa beat."
