referencing The Coming (2×LP, Album) 61742-1
Great debut from Busta and an excellent addition to your collection. The low end on this pressing is something to behold!
Disc 1 on my copy had the spindle hole cut 2mm too small so I had to use a knife to make it big enough. Once I'd cleaned all the tiny red plastic crumbs off it... it sounds really great! The lows are HUGE! I've never heard a record with so much bass. Disc 2 sounds good too, and neither is warped. The packaging is really high-quality, with a very thick cardboard sleeve and embossed matt printing. Two thumbs up from me
Finally spun my copy, LP one sounded great then LP 2 is extremely warped😑. Anyone else have this issue?
What an absolutely epic first album. One of my favorite VMP pickups of late.referencing The Coming (CD, Album) 61742-2
Why doesn't record companies learn??? its great to see this Classic receive a 25th Anniversary Deluxe Version.... However, how bout releasing it on Double CD and Vinyl, with all the explicit versions and also include Both Jay Dee Remixes of 'Woo-Hah', plus Instrumental versions, and also the Ummah Remixes of 'Its A Party' and 'Ill Vibe' including instrumentals.... Now that would be thee Deluxe Version....
Lows on this are incredible, great version of a classic. Colour is fire too. ;)- Got it on CD when it came out. Great to hear on vinyl. Definitely sounds different to CD. Not as clear and not in a bad way - More full but murkier… Different experience, worth picking up for sure
Quality pressing of this classic east coast record. Vinyl me, please has been on a roll this year.

It's A Party (Allstar Remix) (2021 Remaster) This is Clean or Explicit version?referencing The Coming (2×LP, Album, Reissue) GET52718-LP
Garbage of the highest order.... plain paper inners with rounded corners indicative of URP.... filthy scratched to buggery 1st disc with a laughable edge warp. Didnt even bother to look at disc 2. Returned as fast as i could. Not gatefold and the jacket is barely worthy of holding 1 let alone 2 discs. Stick with the CD until a proper label and plant has a go 🤞
