<blockquote>I got soulful fruit on Vinyl..the og shit from Nu Gruv Stones Throw days before Fat Beats. Also I wish I could post pics but I am not able to yet....i am surprised no one has said anything about the baby g mixtapes. I mean dude is a dj legend from Dallas and one of the first dmc winners from the eighties. Oh yeah, pure moods is def. wit the burgundy cover!!<br />amir </blockquote><br />That's the Soulful Fruit I have too, at the time I didn't even realize it was available on tape I thought it was vinyl-only for some reason.<br /><br />That Riz tape is one of my all-time favorites, with the cover photo in Fat Beats and all. The Public Enemy #1 routine still perplexes me.<br /><br />Also from that era there was a Mista Sinista tape that was solid and that I would pull out every couple of years after that, I think it led off with "I Like It" by Grand Puba and had one of his Biggie routines on it. Handdrawn cover with dude with a hat backwards or something like that.<br /><br />I have a lot of Stretch and Bobbito shows from maybe '94 on, probably about 80-100 on tape with some definitely better than others. A couple Riz and Mayhem's too, and then a few when they became the Halftime Show and added Eclipse. Lots of Bobby Konders and Jabba shows, none with Pat Conroy though.<br /><br />I have way more mix shows taped from radio than actual mixtapes. One of my old partners from work would make regular trips to Burkina and before that flea markets, kid had hundreds and hundreds of tapes going back years. I should work on scoring them, I doubt he even wants them anymore.<br /><br />I'll dig out my shoeboxes later on, gotta post this before the connection times out!!!
