Hello -

Curiosity is killing me.
Trying to ID a specific drum loop that's sampled to death.
It's a distinctive 16th note rock-funk beat with a rather loud snare and
16th shaker, tambourine on the 2 and 4.  Slight shuffle pattern.

Some places it occurs:

Cut to Shock: Put That Record Back On
(with sample: "Do you have any drums in your house?"
[see comp "Blastmaster Radio", for example]

Ben Neill (from Goldbug): the first beat section of "Route Me Out"
(You can hear the beat at www.cdnow.com, search for Ben Neill and record
Goldbug).

I suspect that this beat has been accelerated and cut for many jungle
tracks as well.

Here's the catch:
Is this in fact the beat from "Mary, Mary" by the Monkees?

With apologies,
