^^^ To make that list a Top 5;

Synthetic Substitution - Melvin Bliss

It's a New Day - The Skull Snaps
 
Funky Drummer, Synthetic Substiution, Its A New Day, Amen Brother, and Impeach the president. I would also throw Big Red and Big Beat out there.
 
Impeach The President and Funky Drummer are basically the most oversampled in hip hop. Besides that, most James Brown records have been sampled to death.
 
First that come to mind would be: Impeach the president, funky drummer and the big beat.

One of my favorites wich is used less would be I'm gonna love you just a little more, baby by Barry White:



Which is used in one of my favorite songs in the last couple of years:

 
ffs it have to be amen break, whole bunch of electronic sub genders like jungle, drum and bass and so on was created of that 6 sec break :D
 
1. Lou Donaldson -- Ode to Billie Joe
2. Lee Dorsey -- Get Out of my Life Women
3. The Winstons -- Amen Brother
4. James Brown -- Funky Drummer
5. Barry White -- I'm Gonna Love You Just A Little More Baby
 
i never get tired of hearing classic drumbreaks even if they are oversampled... hearing oversampled samples (other than drumbreaks) piss me off if i have a bad day, lol.. like 21th centurys "remember the rain" makes me loose my shit.

not really related to the topic, but i couldnt think of other breaks than the ones that were already mentioned.
