One of the best versions of "Funky Four Corners" we've ever heard! The bass is rattling along at a level so loud and heavy that it's bound to pop the top off your speaker – while Jerry screams and shouts his way through the lyrics in a way that would make James Brown proud, a fact ...

Jeru's first LP, a double vinyl set of great tracks that more than lived up to the "Come Clean" single. Now classic, with god level production by DJ Premier, with "D Original", "Brooklyn Took It", "Mental Stamina", "Da Bichez", "You Can't Stop ... (Hip Hop) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
(Black label reissue from 2009. Cover is bent a bit at the bottom seam.)
A stone classic from the glory days of 90s hip hop – a set that's worth it not just for Jeru's mad lyrics, but also for the sublime production of DJ Premier – from a time when he had so much studio genius, he seemed to be reinventing the sound of hip hop with each new release! The set's ... (Hip Hop) read moreCD
A record with a much harder edge than you'd expect from the cover – not the ancient vibe of a medieval crusade, or the religiosity in the title – and instead this searing entry to the hard rock underground at the time! The group have a really heavy Black Sabbath sort of sound – ... (Rock) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

One of our favorite tunes ever from Jethro Tull – a cool jazzy number that's almost more Herbie Mann or Harold McNair than the usual Tull groove!
