4 out of 5 stars Why was they hatin?.......2007-07-17

When I was 11 Slick Rick dropped "Great Adventures." Growing up in New York City in the 80's I was exposed to hip hop, and did like hip hop, but it wasn't until 94's "Behind Bars" that I TRULY got into Rick. When your 11, at least back then, hip hop wasn't as all pervasive as it is now. Remember, it wasn't really until 1986 with RUN DMC gettin down with Steven Tyler and crew that "rap" was even shown on MTV with any regularity! Well, needless to say I loved "Behind Bars" when it came out. I thought Rick's wordplay was fierce and it was THIS album that brought me back to his classic 88 debut. He recorded this on a work release furlough and although it's not his BEST album it still smokes. People were straight hatin on the Ruler and called this album trash. Everyone expected Rick to do a "Children Story 2" and that wasn't how he was living. Truth was that Rick was a convicted felon and went from on top to bottom of the barrel in a few short years. 1994 was an epic year for hip hop, so compared to Illmatic, Hard to Earn, TICAL, Street Level( don't you DARE sleep on the Beatnuts!!) of course it doesnt sound all of that, but it is still Slick Rick and i like the down and out Rick. I give it 3 and half stars but to this day i appreciate this album for turning me on to the best storyteller hi hop has ever, and will ever know.

5 out of 5 stars My favorite Slick Rick album.......2006-11-20

When I tell people this one is my favorite, they laugh. I don't know why. Well anyway, its a shame that most rappers today lack a big imagination Like Rick. He tells a story like no other. The lyrics, and his flow is excellent. The prodution is pretty good too. Not club and house party type jams but they still hot. I like the whole album but my favorite tracks are; Behind bars(both versions), Its a boy, and cause its wrong. Recommended to those looking for something different from whats being offered today.

4 out of 5 stars Behind The Patch.......2005-05-12

Slick Rick the Ruler pressed forward with the release entitled Behind Bars. Most of the tracks on here have been remixed before we could even judge the original ones. Rick doesn't stray from his storytelling, imaginative nature of rhymes. The heartfelt and reality striken "All Alone (No One To Be With)" gives a tale of life without love. He goes to back to his so called singing on "Sittin' In My Car" and "A Love That's True (Part I)". On "A Love That's True (Part II)" he comes with a reggae, freestyle flow. The never ending bounce and bass lick production by Greg Nice on "Let's All Get Down" has the Ruler flowing between the energetic Nice & Smooth. To end the lp on a high note "Behind Bars (Dum Ditty Dum Mix)" features Warren G and was also produced by him as well. This is definately the highlight Behind Bars! I gave this four stars and this is the weakest release by Slick Rick and that says everything.

5 out of 5 stars ANOTHER SLEPT ON CLASSIC.......2004-05-22

THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE ALBUM..MUCH SLEPT ON BY CRITICS AND FANS..SEEMS LIKE MOST SLICK RICK FANS DISAPPEARED AFTER GREAT ADVENTURES..WHAT A MISTAKE..THIS IS REAL UNDISPUTED HIP HOP..RICK RECORDED THIS WHILE LOCKED UP..ITS STILL BETTER THAN ALMOST ANYTHING THAT COMES OUT TODAY..I'LL TAKE RICK AT 75% OVER JUST ABOUT EVERYONE ELSE AT 100%..NOONE CAN TELL STORIES AND CHANGE CHARACTERS LIKE RICK..AND HIS STORIES ARE NEVER WACK..GET THIS ALBUM IF YOU LIKE RICK..FORGET ABOUT GREAT ADVENTURES WHEN YOU LISTEN..PLAY THE WHOLE THING THROUGH AND RELAX TO IT..THERES ONLY LIKE 10 TRACKS..NOT AS UPTEMPO AS THE CLASSIC 2ND RELEASE THE RULERS BACK BUT STILL VERY NICE..HOLD ON TO ALL OF RICKS WORKS BECAUSE THEY WILL UNDOUBTEDLY BE A COLLECTORS ITEM..RICK IS THE ONLY RAPPER LEFT WHO DOESNT HAVE TO BE HARDCORE THAT STILL GETS RESPECT FROM EVERYWHERE..LONG LIVE THE RULER..CAN'T WAIT FOR HIS NEXT JOINT

5 out of 5 stars Slick Rick The Ruler.......2001-09-06

You see, it doesn't matter if this album is short, and has a couple of filler/remix tracks, this is one of hip hop's best artists on what is considered his worst album. Even though some people consider this a low standard for Slick Rick, it is still better than most of the junk that is out there, no matter what year it was made.

4 out of 5 stars Good Skate Punk.......2002-02-18

This Is A Good CD. Recommended If You Like Bad Religion Or Satanic Surfers. My Favorite Part Of The CD is the Minor Threat Cover (I Don't Wanna Hear It) hidden near the end of the last Track, around 7:05. You Should Pick It Up.

5 out of 5 stars pure, solid punk.......1999-11-24

88 fingers quickly became one of my favorite bands after i bought this cd; it has a wide variation of melodies but remains consistently upbeat. basically, it's serious punk that's really fun to listen to, as good as anything by lagwagon or NOFX, i think. i recommend listening to their tracks on the fat wreck chords compellations first; everything on this album is as good or better.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing.......1999-07-15

This is definetly the best 88 fingers louie cd on the market. This cd is pure punk greatness from beginning to end, there are no slow, bad, or at all compromised songs. you'll love it for sure.

5 out of 5 stars Exceptioal and unique of Mainieri.......2003-12-24

It was a surprise for that nobody wrote on this. The original recording should be in 1995. Mike Mainieri plays bass marinba, vibes, concert marimba, xylophone, midi vibes, chimes etc. So this has bit a different taste from his Steps Ahead(s) or American Diary. The album is composed of many slow ballad tunes. As for me, this is his best album where he deepened his instruments and music mind that even Gary Burton coudn't do it. Very impressive, original and lured, but also smooth and cozy beat. This album should have won a grammy award, if not, like "questions and answers" and "Rejoicing" of Pat Metheny.
