If you like rap you’ve probably heard the song Scorpio sampled. Maybe you didn’t know where it came from. The answer? 1971, baby. Dennis Coffey and the Detroit Guitar Band. Who? Look him up, there is a lot of music there.
It has always reminded me of that early 1970s Quinn Martin detective show theme song feel. Heck, the song title could be a detective’s name. But this song is way cooler than anything from a Quinn Martin Production. It’s some funk genius.
