Customer Reviews:

The title says it all...........2004-11-07

...The third unheard. That last state in the tri-state that the nation does not know about. If you just looked at TV you think NY,NJ and Philly. CT for some reason was not always put on. Until I dicovered this tonight, I did not even know that this exsited. I recall Afrika Bambatta recounting the early days of hip-hop "spreading throughout the tir-state area," but I had not heard of or knew of any CT rappers from the early days, just the late 80,'s. I give it five stars just for them putting it out...

The Tri-State Hip Hop Circle is Complete.......2004-06-13

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!!!

Connecticut HIP HOP.......2004-06-05

The beats. The claps. The calls to "Come on" or "Get down" or "Check it out." The infectious vibrations, rumbles and urgent rhythmic raps. The references to pugilist poet Mohammed Ali. The bulging bass and trembling chords. The hyper hoots of "Ho-oh." The raw sound of pure early Hip Hop is as exhilarating and overwhelming as the recordings of young Elvis, or Billie Holiday on the radio, or Miles or Marvin Gaye at their most progressive, or any other genre you care to name. It's a sound which still packs immediacy, personality and a hearty party.
