Alright Let's Get This Shit The Fuck On. This is all stuff from the hard drive. The realerer schitt will come later, after I sleep.Badfinger - Straight UpOne of my favorite records. I find it to be falsely optimistic and kind of melancholy, yet committed on a level that at the end of it is really inspiring. Great music.Black Rhythm Truth Band - IfetayoRare and great diaspora funk - issued out of the west indies but with a heavy afrobeat influence. Defies the kind of cookie cutter sound those words might conjure up and resides on a plane of records that are worth the hypeBrand Nubian - One For AllDefinition of classic hip hop record. Duke Ellington, Charlie Mingus, Max Roach - Money Jungle What jazz should sound like. Maybe it's just me but I feel like it's totally under-appreciated, should be considered one of the best - on what record can you even attempt to hear the kind of fucking sheer talent that was in that room??The Editors In ChiefA cut-n-paste mix made a couple years ago by myself, Dr.BrownsCelray, and Rape_Donkeys. Enjoy.Jorge Ben - A Tabua De EsmeraldaI wish I understood Portuguese better because I know Ben is dropping some schitt. This record is the perfect soundtrack for drugs but remains just as potent when sober. This is what dreams sound likeLeroy Hutson - The Best Of Leroy HutsonWell this is just something I threw together from my collection of Leroy Hutson records, everything on here is timeless. I throw this on in the car loud and max out. It's like thatSaafir - Boxcar SessionsFrom the Bay, I can't think of another rap record with the depth, the skill, and the sheer knock of Boxcar. I can't really say this was the soundtrack, but this sounds like West Oakland.Thee Midnighters - GiantsClassic East LA garage band in their best form. "Whittier Blvd.", "Sad Girl", "Land of 1000 Dances", and one of the best versions of "The Look Of Love" I've heard. A record I bought for $3 and wouldn't trade for the world.

    Thee Midnighters - Giants

    Classic East LA garage band in their best form. "Whittier Blvd.", "Sad Girl", "Land of 1000 Dances", and one of the best versions of "The Look Of Love" I've heard. A record I bought for $3 and wouldn't trade for the world.

    Badfinger - Straight Up

    Just pulled that one off the shelf a few days ago. Great record.

    Black Rhythm Truth Band - Ifetayo

    Rare and great diaspora funk - issued out of the west indies but with a heavy afrobeat influence. Defies the kind of cookie cutter sound those words might conjure up and resides on a plane of records that are worth the hype

    This is amazing. Thank you.

    Saafir - Boxcar Sessions

    From the Bay, I can't think of another rap record with the depth, the skill, and the sheer knock of Boxcar. I can't really say this was the soundtrack, but this sounds like West Oakland.

    flashback! nice

    Yeah this rip is an old one, and I remember there being some drama with songs missing - enjoy what's there folks and cop the Light In The Attic issue for the complete package!
  • stop_33stop_33 365 Posts
    hey folks,
    the ER&W rip has been taken down out of respect for the upcoming LITA reissue and jerry brown/ER&W...
    we hope you'll support it when it drops...
    thanks raj and jonny...
    all the best...
    sip

    word jonny...
    the fidelity will be much, much, much, better too...
    re-mastered by the stunt man in vancouver this past summer from scott colborne's OG master tape transfers...

    You are so right on about that. The way that J-Groove and the rest of that production team captured the sounds of endless trainyards was spot on.

    Duke Ellington, Charlie Mingus, Max Roach - Money Jungle

    What jazz should sound like. Maybe it's just me but I feel like it's totally under-appreciated, should be considered one of the best - on what record can you even attempt to hear the kind of fucking sheer talent that was in that room??



    One of the best jazz albums EVER.


    RE: Boxcar Sessions

    Anybody heard the unreleased Boxcar Sessions CD? It's not on vinyl, but I could post that up when I get home. Some remixes and throwaways from the album plus one circa-2000 track called Whomp 2000 or something. Haven't listened in a while but the old tracks all had the same appeal as the Boxcar album, fans of that should dig it. Hopefully, I can find it.

    DAMN this is bringing back memories... this is in my top 10 albums of all time, nothing like it when it came out... remember his interview in 4080 magazine...

    Gotta say R.I.P. to my hommie Mike Dream... that dude was cool as fuck to me being a dude in Australia writing for rap magazines... he laced me with the records and 411 on the Bay Area scene... it's fucked up what happened...

    And while we're at it...RIP Plan B.

    Hard to find, but his "Quest 4 Survival" 12" with MC Pooh and Saafir on it is top notch.

    one of the best, but is it really under-appreciated? co-sign your "what jazz should sound like" sentiment.

    also for me:



    i slept on this for that for so long.

    it's so easy to just start a bunch of threads on Record Day, I had to check myself last night. this is one of the better ones today. Thanks jonny

    Yeah, Dream sent me a box of those as well as the APB posters for Plan Bee.... I had a few of those 12"s somewhere sealed still, I gave one to the dudes at DWG a while ago... that Saafir track Runnin from 5-0, someone needs to mp3 that up...

    yeah...seriously...I have the 12" somewhere (test press)...but, I don't have the mptree of that shit...probably one of the hardest saafir tracks...

    that and rock the show...would be a good mp3 to have...if I get the time...i'll do em...
  • Jonny_PaycheckJonny_Paycheck 17,825 Posts
    Found "Rock The Show" a while back... still looking for "Running From 5-0". If anyone can up that, I'd be a fan

    If someone does up this one, brace yourself for one of the most off-beat instrumentals you've ever heard...and not in a good way off-beat either. Actually, the basic track is fine...it's when extra drums come in to "double-time" the beat that things go vastly wrong.
