BOOMBOX - Early Independent Hip Hop, Electro And Disco Rap 1979-83 - New 3 LP Record 2023 Soul Jazz UK Vinyl - Hip Hop \/ Electro","description":"\u003cp\u003eYo! Boombox is the new installment of Soul Jazz Records’ Boombox series on the early days of hip-hop on vinyl, featuring some of the many innovative underground first-wave of early rap and disco rap records made in the USA between 1979-83. \/\/ The album includes the first releases of seminal groups such as Grandmaster Flash \u0026amp; The Furious Five and The Funky Four Plus One More, through to rarities and little-known obscurities such as the Carver Area High School band’s ‘Get Live 83’, an awesome record made at a Linz high school. \/\/ The deluxe 3xLP + 7\" single comes with extensive sleeve notes, exclusive photography and original label artwork. \/\/ It features the stunning photography of Sophie Bramly, one of a very select group of photographers who were allowed full access to document the exciting early days of hip-hop in NYC. \/\/ These first exuberant wave of innocent, upbeat, party-on-the-block rap records were the first to try and create the sounds heard in community centres, block parties and street jams that took place in the Bronx in the mid-1970s. Where the first DJs – Flash, Kool Herc and Bambaataa – were back-spinning, mixing and scratching together now classic breakbeat records like The Incredible Bongo Band’s Apache or Babe Ruth’s The Mexican, these first pre-sampling rap records were all made using live bands, often replaying then current disco tunes. As Chic’s ‘Good Times’ was to ‘Rappers’ Delight’, the songs here feature then-current dancefloor hits such as the Tom Tom Club’s ‘Genius of Love’ or Cheryl Lynn’s ‘To Be Real’ while MCs rapped over the top, creating a unique new sound. \/\/ This new Soul Jazz Records collection celebrates these first old-school rap records, bringing together rare, classic and obscure tracks released in the early days of rap. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e-\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Redeye","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42704747233478,"sku":"5026328005300","price":53.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/silveradocustomhomesinc.com\/s\/files\/1\/1377\/6983\/products\/201374896981.jpg?v=1685490561","url":"https:\/\/www.silveradocustomhomesinc.com\/products\/soul-jazz-records-presents-yo-boombox-early-independent-hip-hop-electro-and-disco-rap-1979-83-new-3-lp-record-2023-soul-jazz-uk-vinyl-hip-hop-electro","provider":"silveradocustomhomesinc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
