I can remember how shocked I was when I learned about the history of the Amen break! Crazy how famous it is yet little know where it came from.
DJTTs blog had a piece on the Amen Break last year? It included the 18 min video you posted.
It's an amazing history. The list I link to has some real surprises as well!

For those who haven't seen this yet or enough. It's obligatory!
/edit LOL you link to it in your page. And FYI that video was actually an art installation created to drive home the point of copyright, public domain, and how it enriches culture and society as a whole.
We need to start a 'International Amen Break Day'.
What day was the record released?
OP, your post says "Now sit back, relax and watch 18 minutes of fascinating history… played from vinyl, of course."
this was a dubplate.
