    Unfortunately, it didn’t have the ending theme. The original itself was alright, but there was a lot of pops and cracklings. On top of that, the copy of the record itself was a little muffled.

      Regarding the vinyl releases (I have the black, red and purple);

      This release was very well done, despite the overall rumour this being unofficial, though Fat John released a version of this a while back.
      All records getting the vinyl-space they deserve, not overcrowding.
      The music here is just phenomenal, lovely balance and punch, excellent mastering. Even though there can possibly be some skipping issues on a few tracks if you set your needle and anti-skate properly, you can omit those skips -speaking from personal experience. Easily do-able but takes a little time.

      The compilation of the tracks really does work here. There is a very nice flow going. Who ever did this may pat him- or herself on the back for a job well done!

      All in all a must to own albeit you're a fan of the series, or just just jazzy hip hop in general!

              I ordered both the limited orange from Vinyl Digital and then the green version from HHV and both SKIP LIKE CRAZY on the second track in the same exact spot. Not worth the time or money to send these back. What a disappointing reissue.

                Got my green copy a couple of days ago from Juno, sounding quality, no jumps, pops, clicks or skips. Could someone add the green copy to this page please? I'm not quite sure what I'm doing, TIA.

                  The worst thing is that they have it (hhv) restock 2 times in 2 days, and they tell me that they could not send me my copies because they did not stock up. . Crook.
                  I ordered many times, and dropped a lot of money in their shop and here is the result ..
                  I will never order from you again.

                    hhv.de ​​removes my order without reason for the RED edition
                    Do not hope to have a copy at less than 90-100 euros.I think a small restock of the official appeared at 12:35
                    but it's not in stock, missed.
                    Good day everyone.

                      What's crazy is. I only paid like 27 dollars on Amazon for my copy. I should've bought a stack of them.
