so favorate find in my limited adventures in digging...
Biggie Live in London LP 1995.
Tim Westwood (of Radio One UK) pressed it on vinyl (and was the promoter of the show). I found it at Rush Hour records on spuistraat in Amsterdam on my way to class one day. It's beautiful.. Biggie in London yo:). As with most early hip hop shows, sound is pretty bad, or dirty- some prefer it that way. Biggie talkin to the british crowd is priceless.. shouts of "is south london in the house tonight?? this our first time out, we gonna rip this shit..." even Puff's not so bad as a hypeman "the reason why i'm jumpin in the crowd is i wanna get to know y'all... its good to meet y'all niggas, i didnt see y'all the whole time i was here.."
speaking of, i got a weekend of kool-ass concerts to go to:
friday: schooly D in rotterdam
saturday: jason moran (blue note jazz pianist and a girlfriend's hubby) in rotterdam
sunday: puff and snoop at heineken music hall in amsterdam
(jason's also playing in damsko at the Bimhuis on sunday- holler if you a friend and want list;).. now back to work. love.
