Notes
The Mohawks were a band formed from session musicians and fronted by the undisputed king of Library music composers, Alan Hawkshaw. We don't think The Mohawks were ever actually a 'touring' band, but rather the clever idea of some guy at KPM music in the 60's who decided to release a bunch of incredibly groovy and funky library music tracks and package it under the name "The Mohawks".

It's all pretty irrelevant, however, once you get your ears wrapped round the fantastic tunes on this legendary LP. The stupidly-brilliant title track ("The Champ") has gotta be one of the most sampled (and emulated) melodies in hip hop.

New remastered CD and 180gram Vinyl LP.

Please note: Tracks 4, 5, 9 and 11 also appear on the CD only title Mo'Hawk.
