Just wanted to share.

I won't reveal the price but he paid a very fair price. (I was satisfied.)

On vinyl I had Mc Solaar single they were on, a double vinyl of From the Ground Up, and a double vinyl single for My Mellow My Man.

There's a link in my signature to most of the item at Discogs.

13234280, At first I was like "He can't have that much more than what I have"

and then I saw the length of the videos. And then I saw the videos. Holy shit lol. This is some Quest level shit for sure, not surprised he bought it.
13234289, I wanna hear how Secret Agent Man came about. You described it perfect

...after they went to Def Jam, I don't have the Elvis Costello, John Legend, or the Betty Wright stuff cause I was done with them when "Rising Down" dropped, everybody wanted Questo for drumming (artists who I don't like) and Blackthought was getting guest appearances in too many random places for me to even care, since most of the time he wasn't spitting anything inspiring anymore.

Plus I didn't even know they made a clean version of "Do You Want More" on cd, I've had the vinyl for years but didn't know 'till you showed us.


13234422, I had no idea Quest was on Blazing Arrow
Posted by sectachrome86, Tue Feb-13-18 06:16 PM
I love that album too.
13234424, ^^A few times
Posted by handle, Tue Feb-13-18 06:23 PM
He produced First in Flight and Nowhere Fast.

James Poyser and Tracey Moore from JazzyFatNastees were on Nowhere Fast too.

the instrumental vinyl was hard to get at the time. (Thanks to Discogs you can get it fairly cheaply now.)
13234437, I Never Paid Attention To The Credits

I was never a fan of Blackalicious but I had a few 12" singles from them (which is why I never copped any albums from them) but a friend of mines was into them and worked at the local college radio station when "Blazing Arrow" came out and got a copy of the instrumental version and gave it to me if I made a copy of it on cd for him, which I did with bonus instrumentals from the "Deception" 12" on it as well.

I think I still have the master cd copy of the instrumentals I did for him somewhere, I remember being silly and renaming all the titles of the songs too, I need to go find it and rename it correctly and put production credits with it.
