Hand On the Torch

Description

The British jazz/hip hop fusion collective Us3 founded in 1992 in London and its notable members included producers Mel Simpson and Geoff Wilkinson. The group scored a major hit in 1994 with ‘Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)’, a track that displayed the group’s fondness for sampling classic recordings from the Blue Note label (in this case, Herbie Hancock’s ‘Cantaloupe Island’). The track was included on this, their debut album ‘Hand On the Torch’.
