melinda it's a sample of some rapper (i couldn't tell you) sampling "american woman" by the guess who.
so, a sample of a sample.

JakeGould:

@melinda: It’s an instrumental remix (I believe) of “Saturday Night Fever” by Lordz of Brooklyn.

Dunno what's happening up in the ionosphere tonight, but... I was receiving the broadcast signal on the car radio all the way down to East Windsor, NJ tonight... Anyway, re: "Diamond Dogs" -- I always felt Bowie could have stated that the Rolling Stones were backing him on this track, and it would have been totally believable.
