Acapella advice-help (for the house genre)

hey guys

i was wondering if anyone can 'recommend' me any good vinyls/12"'s/ LP sampler, which include only acapella's you can use for your sets.

what im currently looking for, as an addition to the sound of my house sets; acapella's, especially acapella's of known quotes etc, like Martin Luther King's 'One Day', Armstrong's on the moon 'It's 1 small step for man, ... ', etc.
there's 1 acapella i taotally love, but of which i never found the title. it was like; 'Its all about house music, its all house music. Listen children, .... ' that one is really cool, Kid Creme & Junior Jack used it in their EM some years ago. afwaterwards, that acapella got used a lot more.
these are just some examples of the sort of acapella's im after.
my house-sound varies from sanchez, guetta, kandi, morillo, felix da housecat, etc. to the more porgressive ones like Francois Dubois, Sultan, etc.

ps: im not 100% sure if this is the right section to ask this, but there's only 1 way to find out ..

The acapella you mention is available.
Ron Carroll Presents The RC Groove Project (The Sermon ) (Ronapella) - Subliminal.

Its on the 12" promo on subliminal, or subliminaldigital/ beatport has it for download if you want the digi copy.
A firm favourite of mr Morillo that one...

I have well over 50 records crammed full of just acapellas- I buy them in the US every month or whenever I see them.
Acapella anonymous is a good series for more well known housey ones (numbered 1-9).
There are others like lost acapellas, the ear candy series, and the 'classic rare and unreleased' acapella series is useful.
For some funkier stuff, you could do a lot worse than the salsoul acapella discs (brothers and sisters). In short, there are loads of dedicated house acapella ones out there.

The Martin Luther King speeches are out on a 12" somewhere, as is Malcom X. Plenty of spoken word records out there- thats what crate digging was invented for... get stuck in

Most of these are available on original releases, but it saves you hunting them down I guess

hey Freak

do you perhaps know the title / a release which features the acapella mentioned in the 1st post of THIS thread? ('In the beginning there was Jack, and Jack had a groove, ... ')

cheers!

Fingers Inc - Can You Feel it (aka Larry Heard) from 1988, or Rhythm Controll - My House from 1987.

Find an original of that on vinyl you are looking at $$$$$$ :
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....mMakeTrack=true
Yes that is the general market value of it... crazy rare record.

Kind of semi cover of thet acapella of it on Hool vs Bruckheimer - the beginning (Subliminal or Toolroom records), and there are various bootleg acapella pressings of it.

so, if im right, this expensive record contains the 'In the beginning there was Jack, .. ' acapella?
damn, what a disappointment. there must be a cheaper way.

/edit; if i take a look at the release of 'Mr. Jack' on discogs, he seemed to have released a lot of releases called 'Only house muzik'. most of em include an acapella. could this then be the acapella im after?
