Run DMC - "Raising Hell", this was the big crossover with electric guitar samples! Just about the only hint of Aerosmith I'll ever need. But by golly, it works! The flow just hammers at you, while still remaining chanty and melodic. Old school hip hop at its best. Chuck D famously said about Run DMC's stature in the hip hop community, "They were our Beatles." I've got the original Arista release of this beast, no need to remaster a mix that was perfect to begin with.
