You need need need to get the Sampled Compilations. There are four of them in total plus a Best of. They will totally change everything you think about todays music and also open up new avenues for interest in other types of music.

The Sampled series are double cd complations of the original tracks that have since been covered by todays musicians. ie the hook thats in Eminems My Name is Slim Shady is taken from an old school track from an artist called Labi Siffre. The CDs will entertain you and amuse you by guessing who Sampled it. Youll also get hours and hours of listening pleasure. I got into them about four years ago and have never tired of listening to them. Cant recommend them enough. Let me know how you get on.
