Reviews
Now I understand why this album's price is high, there is that famous Midnight Marauders sample on this record.
As if it weren't a great enough album, with Cal's signature ambient glockenspiel keys taking you to the very top floor via the best elevator in town (!!), the real bonus on the LP is the addition of 'Aquarius', which if positioned in my fictitious 'Tjader Towers' would be the penthouse suite.
'Aquarius' is of course the sample source behind the intro skit to one of the greatest Hip Hop albums of all time, by one of the greatest Hip Hop crews of all time, 'Midnight Marauders' by A Tribe Called Quest.

Japanese CD sounds great...exactly as it should!
