Giant, 1994. Near Mint- (pic cover)... $13.99
Nothing else he did was worth it, but this track, radio hit and all, is still kinda dope.

Family Sign (with bonus 7 inch single & download) ... LP Rhymesayers, 2011. New Copy 2LP Gatefold (reissue)... $27.99 30.99
There's a richness in sound here that's both unusual for Atmosphere, and maybe for hip hop in general – as the use of piano and guitar on many songs really set the stage for some indie elements too!
