Description
Up for sale is a holy grail of independent Texas hip-hop history. Released in 1988, this self-financed 12" EP by Austin's Project Crew (consisting of DJ Cassanova, Clay Moe, Teddy Lee, and Terry T) is widely recognized as Austin's first true vinyl hip-hop release.Recorded and mixed locally at the famous Lone Star Studio in Austin, this record features the iconic, hard-hitting storytelling track "Army Man," the fast-paced party rocker "Rap Rookie," and "Shop Around". Backed by pure 808 and SP-1200 drum programming and sharp scratching, this original pressing is an incredibly tough find for serious golden-era boom bap and regional rap collectors worldwide.Tracklist (As printed on the center labels):Side 1:Army Man (4:13)Rap Rookie (4:44)Rap Rookie (Instrumental)Side 2:Shop AroundShop Around (Instrumental)
