Fierce "Crab" (1996)
Simply one of the best piano loops I've heard, especially when it rolls up the octave. Fierce's "Crab" 12" surfaced in '96, but I could never locate a copy; over the years it achieved holy grail status, as it seemed no one had ever even heard of this joint. Thank God for Ebay.
Fierce comes correct on the track; the piano loop builds to the first snare, and he starts ripping it right before the downbeat...the sh*t was made for doubles. A strong spoken-chorus, followed by a sampled hook (gotta be Wise Intelligent of P.R.T.?). It seems that acronyms were required in the early/mid-nineties, and in this case it's (C)owards (R)ealistically (A)cting as (B)ackstabbers.
Included is the instrumental and the B-side "Come Close", a solid (and funkier) track.

This track is beautifully produced!
I've had the track for years - a random download, but never knew who the group was. I guessed it was called 'crab'. I shazzamed it (2580 from my cell) and it told me the group name. Holly grail indeed!
