The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu

The Justified Ancients of Mu Mu were a seminal influence in the development of sampling music in the United Kingdom.

A run-in with mega-band Abba over some innovative use of material from (particularly) Abba's single "Dancing Queen" led to a legal showdown and the destruction of the album "1987"; original copies of this album are much in demand in sampling circles and change hands for large amounts of money.
