I'm sayin'. Great record and quite possibly THE illest early 90s sample record! Plaese to post an album that was sampled for more early 90s East coast rap classics than this one....
Know what? On a recent purge session I put that on 'cause all I remembered about it was that it had a buncha of samples on it. So I play the whole thing again I dunno how many yrs later and actually genuinely enjoy it! Wow! Stays in the collection. BUCKTOWN!
I'm waiting for that Hawkeye dude to get in this thread and go C-R-A-Z-Y!!!!!! LOL. What time is it in Germany?
Yo Chan! It's almost 5am over here! Hawkeye's sleepin I'm still awake though and can cosine on everything you said. Crazy record. When that Sax drops in for "Bucktown", Cats still go crazy. Reminds me of DJ Noize droppin' that on the NMS Battle in 94. Now I wonder what S. Illson has to say about this record. I remember he wasn't too eager to keep it in the collection...

Haven't listened to this record in like 8 years. Goin to try and make a beat out of it tonight.

CLASSIC!!!!!!! Noize KILLED it in that battle. Denmark stand up. I have that whole battle on video. I might have to break that out and watch that shit tonight.

LOL! Word. Weezey, email me that beat when you finish it.
Much props on this chan. It's definitely staying in my collection. Very nostalgic for a lot of reasons. Funny how hard it used to be to track this one down back in the 90s.
yo that record is rdiculousssss so many thick ass horn sounds, crazy gutitar riffs and tight basslines
but really you gotta give it up for those who pulled some of those samples...the "hold ya head" horns and the "represent" riff especially. showbiz should wear that record like a fuckin crown!!! others took some obvious parts...he went spelunkin on that fuckin thing!!!
all in all, a nice record to listen to. melodic, at times fast paced, but over all very peaceful. and the cover is unique and kinda crazy

Best thing is back right when bucktown came out I walked in the used record store and the dude that works there just so happened by chance to be playing the jack bruce album. I heard the diamond d bassline and damn near crapped my pants!!!! I looked up and asked what it was and he showed it to me and then sold it to me for $8. When I got it home I heard all the other ill shit on it. Artifacts, etc. Dope ass record.
I found a copy about six years ago but didn't pick it up cause of the price (i think it was $16 or something). I knew that it was legendary and that show sampled it for that crazy guitar line on "represent" but listening through it i knew i wouldn't really ever listen to it as an 'album'. I must have missed the bucktown sax...now i regreting not coughing up for it. Definitely on the look out for it now..

Get with the program dunny. I think you would really like this album.
Sorry pops! I should be able to locate this "in the field" though?
You should really not have a problem catching this. It is not raer or anything like that.

For real I think my copy is probably the only one I've ever seen - prob a regional thing. I've never really listened to it though.
Hah, indeed. I don't know if you own this pickwick but those are somekind of sausages sticking out of that mass of potatos.
i dont own it, but ive seen the album cover enough times in used stores
Watup T****!!!
his car is definitely
when i heard born to be blues i went
first the wrong side of the tracks sax and then the smiff n wessun loop.
Need to pull this out and give the whole LP another listen though.
