I love this LP
Indeed the version of SWAT is a classic Bronx Break.. Sampled by LL Cool J on the legendary 'I'm Bad' track.Cut to shreds by a thousand dj's. It was a staple at the DMC mixing championships in the late 80's early 90's.
The version of '3 Days of the Condor' is second only to Mr Love's All time great version (IMHO)...WORD
P.Go on wit'cha bad elf

* "Sky's the Limit"
  Boogie Down Productions's "Nervous"
I like this song a lot and played it out quite a few times, often having people asking me the title, so it has an impact for sure. Gets played in the bboy circles too.

I like a couple cuts off that album. S.W.A.T. as mentioned, but also the title cut and their version of Baretta's Theme.
Their other album, "Sky's the Limit" has that BDP sample already mentioned, but also a cover of Starsky and Hutch.
Call me a sucker, but I do like themes from 70s cop shows that I grew up with.

The latter is preferable as it has a good "Police Story" theme on it as well.
I might have a double of "Send in the Clowns" if I didn't already throw it away in a fit of pique, I'll check it out...*

(Do people still say "pants" in the UK?)
Anyway, now that I have this valuable information I can flood the trades board with copies of Send In The Clowns.
