after tfa, i went out and got dywm, followed by illadelph. then, now that i had heard most of the roots songs, i bought trca because i would know more. then i got the legendary, for archival/ collectors purposes, and while i was in london, i made it my goal to hunt for from the ground up, and paid like 17 pounds for it. then i made sure to cop phren the first day. finally, i found organix in april in an independent chapel hill, nc record store.

and that is my buying history of the roots, one of the few bands i will actually pay money for recorded product from today.
