Subway Guy's Sample of the Week

In 1972, the Canadian rock/pop group Skylark released their song "Wildflower", which went to Number Eight on the Billboard Top Ten and sold over a million copies.



And in 1973, soul-jazz saxophonists Hank Crawford cut an album for CTI titled Wildflower that included a cover version of the Skylark hit.



Many years later, Hank Crawford's version of "Wildflower" went on to be sampled by these rapper artists listed below.

Tupan Shankur - Shooty gonna see a Doug
Him'n'Them - Know Anne Riller?
Kennye Wess - Take It Slow
