If you're not familiar with this artist/Title, here's some additional information: "Despite their name, the Chicago Gangsters were originally from Ohio, consisting of Phillip Upchurch, Tennyson Stephens, Richard Evans, Brian Grice, John Howell and Clifford Davis. Their sound ranged from heavy funk to sweet, smooth soul balladry. They adopted the name Chicago Gangsters after catching on with the Gold Plate label, where they worked with prolific songwriter/arranger Richard Evans and a number of Chicago's top studio musicians. Their debut LP, Blind Over You, was released in 1975 and contained the slamming funk of "Gangster Boogie," as well as a minor hit cover of "I Choose You," which Willie Hutch had originally recorded as the love theme to the film The Mack."Gangster Boogie" became a massively popular sample item for hip-hoppers and breakbeat aficionados, most prominently appearing on L.L. Cool J's hit "Mama Said Knock You Out"; this album was eventually reissued as Gangster Boogie and is long out of print ....
