Chris Read, nome ligado à Wax Poetics e ao WhoSampled, acaba de divulgar mais uma das suas mixes regulares de homenagem, desta vez dedicada ao clássico dos Black Sheep A Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing, trabalho de estreia do duo de Dres e Mista Lawnge que integrou o colectivo Native Tongues que, aliás, acaba de ser alvo do anúncio de um novo projecto de documentário cuja campanha de angariação de financiamento decorre agora no Kickstarter.
O duo de Queens incorporou em 1991 o espírito da Native Tongues que já se tinha manifestado em portentosas estreias dos De La Soul ou A Tribe Called Quest e assinou um álbum carregado de samples significantes cujos originais agora alimentam a vénia de Chris Read que recupera para o presente pérolas de Isaac Hayes, Jefferson Airplane, Gary Bartz, McCoy Tyner ou Rare Earth num caleidoscópio de referências entre a soul, o rock e o jazz.
