As this song is dated 1984 and The JAMMs/The KLF/2K.... didn't actually come into the music scene till about 1987 (20 years of The KLF this year!) - with the release of "1987:What the ***K's going on" I would guess that the KLF probably sampled it from Man Parrish.
oh yes, absolutely i was fairly sure Bill and Jimmy lifted it from the Man Parrish track - but it stands out so much from the rest of the Boogie Down Bronx track that I assumed that Man Parrish has sampled it from somewhere else. however, you're article mentions "Parrish's catchy keyboard melodies" so perhaps it was infact original in that song. a shame, i was looking forward to hearing what a song built around that small melody would sound like. oh well, thanks anyway for the info
