Notes

You can tell the difference between this version and the reissue by the following characteristics:

1. The Reissue was pressed on flimsier vinyl and therefore weighs less than this version.

2. The labels on this version are darker and also have a more pronounced ring underneath the labels.

There is also another version with labels that credit the Harlem Underground Band.

There is also a variation of the printed cover with the spelling Tayya Winley.

Freddy Fresh has cited this in his book (to much debate) as being the first Rap record. Other than his claim, Fatback's "King Tim III" is usually accepted as the first.
