I remember when hip hop wax was commanding $$$ that this went for over 2 bills more than a few times. I bet it has retained its value. Ask Rare Dave or DWG - those guys probably have quality MP3s of the track.

I think I got a copy a home, let me check and I'll PM you.

i think i've got this on 12" if you need. from what i remeber the remix isn't too different from the OG..
Awww. NO PM. I want to hear it too. What's the big deal about it?
its just rare... thats the only big deal. the only reason its called a 'remix' is cuz its a little longer i think?
shit dude, thats just why i've read
now i'm REALLY curious why it hasn't been reished...
it's not that much different. more esg, less blind alley.
the remix is subtle, kinda like the "biz is goin off" remix, not a major remix in the sense of "scenario" or "punks jump up".
marley beefed up the drums at teh start and sprinkled in a bit more panned UFO for the kids, other than that its nothing amazing - the main treat is the dub version of the LP version, always loved them shits.
I HOPE it doesn't get bootlegged, but I guess its only a matter of time, on a side note B-Boy are reissuing the "blue" mix of "strong island".

also the brand new "doin damage" 2lp reissue is supposed to have 3 bonus tracks.
I remember I had an OG copy of the test press for OC - Times Up. Which I found in Buffalo around 95-96 from an old school radio DJ friend of mine.
Had a remix differen't than the Buck one. I sold it later that year.
Anyone know of this rmx or have a copy?
pretty sure its on the recent issue of the single w/pic sleeve
Sorry.. Forgot to say, not the Eclipse one either.
Nice record, but not sure why it's so tough to find. Definitely one of the toughest Cold Chillin' promo records to track down, for some reason.
'Ain't No Half Steppin' (Vocal Remix)'
Enjoy...
This is soulstrut at work - knowledge being dropped!! I'm surprised that this hasn't found its way on to a comp or something. Someone should think about putting out quality reissues of this material, legit ones, along the lines of what the delicious vinyl people are doing.

back before the internet blew all this stuff up, if you had some of these rare pieces, they would melt peoples heads off. i spent almost half my life trying to track shit down. if some herbivoire can skip the basic hiphop knowledge, and go right for the turbo raers, it basically negates all the work and effort older dudes have put in. sayin.
can't you do that with serato?
Yeah, I used to think that in a way. But, wasnt the purpose of this music to be enjoyed?
Is the purpose of an obscure remix that really ain't that different from the original to be enjoyed? Or to be collected? I kind of think the latter.
I feel what Tom's saying. But I also think there are more worthwhile titles to reissue. I think the reissuing of super obscurities kind of makes this drive to get them when people haven't gotten the essentials first.
w/ funk i can let it go. it's important to archive that stuff, but hip hop isnt that old, and it's our generation's music. i have a much greater attachment to it.
whoa. holy stalker, batman.
nah man. if anything, serato has made me more of a collector and condition freak.
