Best Samples: True

The guitar riff from the 1983 number one hit song “True” by Spandau Ballet is instantly recognizable. Whenever the 1980s are recreated cinematically, this iconic melody by Spandau Ballet is mystically in the background. The tune simply creates a soothing atmosphere and in 1991 “True” was sampled by P.M. Dawn for “Set A Drift On Memory Bliss” creating another memorable song. P.M. Dawn took the iconic guitar riff from “True” and made it their own one number hit as a poetic rap. What do you think the sample? Is it one of the best of all-time?
