On the heels of the recent Droppin' Science compilation, and to the delight of crate-diggers everywhere, come these treasures from deep in the Blue Note vaults. The artists featured here created soulful, and funkified sounds that decades later became the source of grooves, vamps, and beats for today's most heralded DJs and hip-hop producers, from Jay-Z to Beastie Boys to The Roots....On Heritage, Trumpeter Eddie Henderson beamed the hard bop vocabulary of Lee Morgan and Freddie Hubbard up to a sleek, space-age frontier, prefiguring the nu-jazz movement with his innovative use of effects and electronics. This is the album with the revelatory "Inside You," a future funk-DJ favorite which has been often sampled, most famously by Jay-Z for "Coming of Age" on his renowned debut album Reasonable Doubt.
