Congrats to Stone's Throw Records on their marvelous compilation! Any fan of the early days of Hip Hop, dating back to the days of the Suger Hill Gang, Fatback Band, and Afrika Bambaata will no doubt love this album. It really shows how Hip Hop all started in Connecticut and eventually slipped thru the cracks. Another lost treasure brought to the surface by Stone's Throw's Eothen Alapatt, who also executive produced the release of another lost album by a Connecticut native, Dooley O's Watch My Moves 1990, late last year. Keep up the good work and bravo!!!
