Just go for the records that have a black guy with an afro on the cover.

Hahaha, did come across one, but it turned out to be a famous guitarist instead.

Great music, but Hendrix's songs don't come with thát much useful sample stuff. (Not saying it's a bad buy though.)

WHAAAATT?! Jimi's records got tons of material for your sampling pleasure. From drum breaks to basslines to strange ambiences. Try to make something from his first 3 albums with the Experience, you'll stumble on shit you never thought existed on those.

Well, I actually bought that record, so I might as well do some sample searching on it as well. I know some people swear there's at least one sample on every record and I am sure they're right knowing what kind of songs get mangled here at the sp-forums.

Anyways, it's a good idea, thanks. I actually plan on sampling a bunch of other popular records too, like Michael Jackson, Meatloaf and so on.

I bought those more so to listen too as well. 8)
