i posted an extended version of the orig taxi theme a while back, this one's a more recent self-cover

Bob James was a big influence and sample source for early hiphop. he originated the famous bell loop of dmc's peter piper, the synthesizer riff of warren g's regulate & others, and beatline used by a lotta good songs.
 
embedder has no option to jump to a timestamp. 32:32 last song

huh, i learned something. i got curious enough to search the song's name to see what it is.
it's name means "the lace maker", it's a south american folk song supposedly written by Lampião, sort of a billy the kid / robin hood kinda character: a bandito in the landlord-driven backwaters before the govt. pushed for modernization. over 120 VERY different versions are out there.

Delightful tune! Immediately made me think of this:
Gotta love that Samba rhythm
