Once again, check http://avalon.net/~kent/music/amen/ which has the original break. As has been reiterated over and over, the Amen break came from a track called "Amen Brother" which was released in 1969 by a group called The Winstons. The Amen break is something of an internet virus -- every version I've ever has been a version of the same original wav file. You can distinguish it because it's 3 bars, and the last bar is truncated by about 1/10th of a second. kent williams -- xxxx@xxxxxx.xxx ICQ:33001909 On Wed, 9 Jun 1999 xxxxxx@xxx.xxx wrote: > << Ok, it's about 140-160 bpm and it goes something like this: > > "thud-thud-bang-thud-bang-thud-bang-thud-bang-b-b-bang" > > Of course, there are about 10,000 different variations too.
