5.0 out of 5 stars Must-have for any old-skool fans, May 14, 1999

This was the first tape I ever bought. Recently I dug it up again and it sounded just as good as it did in junior high school when I played it to death. Run DMC took it to the masses and no one can doubt it. I came here looking for the CD (nostalgia?) and unfortunately found that it was out of stock!!! Damn!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Top of the line old school hip hop album, November 19, 2003

Man this album is dope and I highly suggest it. In my mind it's their best ever because Raising Hell is when they 'sold-out' and they just weren't the same. The best track on here is the last song Darryl & Joe (Krush Groove 3) cause JMJ (RIP) has some mad cuts in there and that's the best they've sound. Another good song is Jam Master Jammin. Both Jam Master Jammin and Darryl and Joe are both underrated songs, but they certainly make your feet tap.

Buy this album, you won't regret. If you like downloading off Kazaa or whatever, go right ahead, just as long as you appreciate what Run DMC did for hip hop music by coming out with this album.

This being released like a year after their self titled it was light years beyond it. This album blew me away when I first heard it and still does. "King Of Rock" and "Can You Rock It Like This" are amazing tracks.
