The Lovejoys
(1 of 2) The Lovejoys are crackin' up! Old TV series themes, completely unknown and really well-known instrumental tracks of more or less known instrumental bands of the 60's and 70's; these are the main elements of the Lovejoys' music. A main interest of the Lovejoys are all those songs that many hip hop artists have sampled for their tracks. "Lonely Bull" was the track, that the Delinquent Habits made a hit of with "Tres Delinquentes", "Apache" of the "Incredible Bongo Band" was and is a standart for breakbeat tracks and the Beastie Boys' "Root Down" was sampled out of a Jimmy Smith Composition, that the Lovejoys now play, and play, - and play.
