Visit SoPedradMusical for the original link. Back soon, I hope. Blogger has decided to start pulling my posts completely, even though I'm not hosting the links directly. I've tried to use this spot as a friendly guide to what we all want, but they've decided that I can't even do that anyone... I think I have to relocate. What do you think!?!

"Gaspare "Gap" Mangione (born July 31, 1938) is a jazz pianist, composer, arranger, and bandleader from Rochester, New York, United States. Born and raised in Rochester, Mangione's younger brother is Grammy-winning flugelhornist Chuck Mangione. Members of a music-loving family, both Gap and Chuck took up instruments. In 1958, they started performing together as the Jazz Brothers, eventually recording three albums for Riverside Records. In 1968, Gap Mangione released his first solo album, Diana in the Autumn Wind, featuring drummer Steve Gadd and bassist Tony Levin in their first recordings, and new compositions and arrangements by Chuck Mangione who conducted as well. The 1970s brought more solo albums along with tours with his own group and many as featured pianist in his brother's orchestral performances. In the 1980s, Mangione began to spend more time playing in and around Rochester and less time on the road. In 1990, he formed the Gap Mangione New Big Band, which remains the premier dance and concert big band in the Rochester area. The New Big Band has released four CDs since 1998. Many major rappers and producers, including Madlib, Slum Village, and Talib Kweli, have sampled Gap's Diana in the Autumn Wind for their recent works. Today, Mangione continues to make regular appearances at Rochester locations, among them the Woodcliff Hotel and Spa (since May, 1987) and the Rochester International Jazz Festival, as well as private gigs; he can be found playing solo, with the 14-piece New Big Band, the "New Blues Band" (a quartet) or his sextet. He and Chuck continue to play together, mainly for appearances with symphony orchestras, or with Chuck as special guest with Gap's big band.
In 2004 he received the Artist of the Year Award from the Arts & Cultural Council for Greater Rochester. Mangione lives in the Rochester suburb of Greece, New York with his wife, Janet; his children are Ardis Mangione-Lindley and Jason Mangione..." courtesy of Wikipedia.

HipHopIsRead has never put out bullshit, and that's 100%. Grab this, RIGHT NOW!!! This sample set is liver then the entire "Wu-Massacre" album, and the Raoul Dev Burman sample for "Meth vs. Chef 2" is enough validation on the reason why is belongs in you sample collection... "Well... this certainly wasn't the Meth, Ghost & Rae album we were waiting for. As I said on Twitter, it sucks that Def Jam spent more money on the sick graphic design than on making sure the music held up to expectations. Wu-Massacre definitely had some solid tracks, but fell flat as an LP/album. Oh well... This sample set is undoubtedly incomplete but it's got plenty of great tunes you may have never heard before, namely the title theme for the Bollywood film Shalimar. Turn it up!!" courtesy of HipHopIsRead.
