Sample Saturdays: Mansfield/Hawkshaw are Ugly Duckling



Just discovered this one, so think of it as something new to kick-off our new feature Sample Saturdays. Keith Mansfield and Alan Hawkshaw, composers of many brilliant BBC themes during the 70s and 80s, were sampled by Young Einstein for Ugly Duckling’s track The Breakdown. The More You Know.



This post is part of Sampled Saturdays, a new feature where we explore where our music originated from.

      It’s a shame that they’ve taken it down. The track they sampled was Alan Hawkshaw – Organ Mania

      The track is way too short though.
