the delfonics

this is probably the most sampled group in the nineties. the delfonics were the real OGs, everything from the fugees "ready or not" to silks, "for the love i gave to you" to "summertime" by jazzy jeff and the fresh prince.

their songs have been used extensively in film soundtracks, the most notable being Quentin Tarantino's 1997 movie Jackie Brown, in which "La-La (Means I Love You)" and "Didn't I Blow Your Mind" underscore the pivotal relationship between Pam Grier and Robert Forster. the film helped create a borderline cult following for the songs and this group.
