The Roots – Things Fall Apart

Seems to be in print again.. or still? Dont know, but my copy is absolutely stunning. No issues at all and sound quality is brilliant! Happy to finally have this in my collection.. 44 bucks.. i could not resist! :-)

Among the many gems dropped for Roots fans by ?uestlove during the wonderful fourth series of Open Mike Eagle's What Had Happened Was podcast was news (to me anyway) that it wasn't just five different covers for the original CD release, but each of those different covers had a different hidden track. None of the listings here include any indication of this, and I've only ever had a copy of the "riot" cover so can't check. Is there anyone out there who has some or all of the different editions and can post some info about the tracks on the other versions, please?

Description completely matches, okayplayer logo on the front but I’m not seeing a 2013 on mine, just 98 & 99. Also a faint stamp on the shrink that reads “Made in Canada” 04041352 3. Anyone have any leads on which version mine is?

Ignore ErioRaggen. This is a solid album.

Listen to The Return To Innocence Lost and not be affected. A horrific glimpse into somebody's reality. All too common.

This The Roots at their finest. 5 Stars

MOV talks for it self. Rich and warm sound. Exactly the thing this album deserves!

You need to buy an LP and stop rewindin' this!

Repressed June 2022 seemingly . . . . . .

Alright y’all, kinda frustrated about this haha!!!!!!!!
So, does anybody have a copy where the side A/B are reversed and misprinted? My copy does… and it also lack the last track…
It also has no machine stamped number… for god’s sake. But yeah the records are transparent no doubt.

Got a NM second hand copy, nice all round package, no sound issues sounds great and the discs of extras is an interesting listen

Must be one of the best sounding pressings in the genre. So rich, warm and bassy.
