4.0 out of 5 stars Xtra spices from MF Doom, December 22, 2002
By "nova950" (Ground Zero.....NYC!!!!) - See all my reviews
MF blessed us with beats that he and his collaborators made over the years that he spit over. Some of the beats are just loops from R&B songs but they are good too. Not going to say too much about a instrumental LP but if you are into production and love to freestyle over underground beats, this is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sonic DOOM, June 18, 2006
It's difficult to review a release such as Special Herbs 1 & 2. Whereas most Hip Hop instrumental albums are made to be just that, an instrumental album, the Special Herbs series gives the listener vocal free production from DOOM's back catalogue of Hip Hop Classics.

This would put most people off just a little bit, if it wasn't for the fact that the material DOOM has put out over the years on his solo albums sounds so fresh that to hear the music on it's own is still a worthwhile experience, plus there are a couple of previously unheard tracks on each volume.

I highly recommend this first installment & wouldn't hesitate in recommending all volumes in this series. Or alternatively you could track down the condensed 3CD Box Set.

5.0 out of 5 stars Get The Box Set instead, May 20, 2006
By OverTheMoon (overthemoonreview@hotmail.com) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
The Special Herbs collections are essentially instrumental-only tunes of what you have heard from MF DOOM / VIKTOR VAUGHN before and then some extra stuff that did not make it to the final cut and of course tunes that MF DOOM had being working on but had no place outside of an instrumental offering. Hence the name, Special Herbs! I would suggest that you search out a full MF DOOM collection and then get these supplements unless you are looking for instrumental-only hip-hop. If you are, then you have come to the right place.

Special Herbs: The Box Set is Special Herbs vol. 0-9. You get all five double albums for the price of two albums. So it is much better value.
