This band was my number one untouchable every day play 10x shit:
I was mad into the Beatles and 60's music in general, I had always played my parent's Beatles records as a kid, but in High School I started reading books about them and going to see "Hard Day's Night" at the revival cinemas...this was my favorite of theirs around the time:
Local punk rock:
other punk rock:
dudes that were into punk were into hip hop then, too, at least the ones I knew...I got most of the "classics" as they came out, high school was about:
The first copy my friend Ed & I had of this was the "Hot Club Version" all-instrumental...we didn't even know it had lyrics until months later, which blew our minds all over again. Other high school hip hop jams on lock:
Other random shit I played so much I had to buy new copies years later:
See, this is what happens when you get me started on this shit...
this is actually a rare record. GNRs first release on UziSuicide records, privatepressaxlhairbandrare.
you know what? when I got home today, I listened to this and I dont think its really a live record. Have you heard those 'live' hiphop records where the audience is noise is dubbed in? 'holy war (live)' is a good example, you can even hear the audience noise looped. I could be wrong about this GNR record though, it might be a really well recorded performance. *but note that they dont say where and when the 'live' recording took place.
For those who have the LP, check it out, am I crazy?

I think it is really a live record, from the intro and the fact thec rowd noise isnt looped...I think it was recorded at the trubador if I am not mistaken. really live, yes...private press indie release, no.

No, its not!
Don't have an album cover pic; but I was rocking the MDC hard in highschool:
This one still gets played on the regular:
Oh yeaH, I became somewhat obsessed with this album back then also (still am)
