We’re so glad you’re here with us!\n--\nThis song from the Amsterdam collective lifted the hook wholesale from  Ray Barretto's 1968 \"A Deeper Shade of Soul.\" (Psst: Barretto sampled the hook from Eddie Floyd's 1966 \"Knock on Wood.\") \n--\nThe story of Urban Dance Squad began in late December of 1986 at a nightclub in Utrecht named De Vrije Vloer when five disparate musicians joined on stage.\n\nThe fivesome consisted of Rudeboy Remington (vocals), Tres Manos (guitar), Silly Sil (bass), Magic Stick (drums), and DJ DNA (turntables), and they decided to call themselves Urban Dance Squad as an homage to Parliament-Funkadelic’s Urban Dancefloor Guerillas.: https://adambernard.blogspot.com/2025/07/one-hit-wondering-urban-dance-squad.html",
