Yeah, not following you at all with that comment, Boog.  Care to explain?

It just doesn't get the respect it deserves. We always hear about Illmatic, The Chronic, Ready to Die, All Eyez On Me, but this is one you have to bring up for people to say "oh yeah Doggystyle too". To me this album changed the game and is probably my all time favorite that I never get sick of. It's like the movie Friday - once a week forever and it's still not old to me.

Maybe it's just a matter of perspective but I've always heard it mentioned in conversation along with those albums so I'm not seeing it.

Man I wish I was old enought to be aware of when Doggystyle dropped and all the singles were around.  Unfortunately, I only got the album in the mid 2000s when I was getting into rap seriously although I had been listening to some of the singles for a few years beforehand.  It's certainly one of the best rap albums of all time and the pinnacle of g-funk.

It's interesting to note just how fresh Doggystyle still sounds all these years later; a cliché, I know, but it really does sound like it could have been recorded and released just last week.  Compare the production to The Chronic, which was released just a year before and the difference, sonically, is incredible.  Credit due to Dr. Dre, any ghost-producers (!), the studio engineers and everyone else involved in the making of this classic album.  And to think that Dr. Dre rushed the mixing of the album due to label interference in order to get it ready for release!

Now I've gotta find an original pressing of this album, but they're hard to come by these days.

Yeah, me too. Does anybody know how many versions of the album with "G'z Up & Hoes Down" on it were released? I want that version.

The tape i purchased here in the UK (5 Dec 1993) had the Gz Up & Hoes down on it as did the one my friend bought on the same day. Another friend bought the CD the following day and it didnt have it on. Managed to get a vinyl copy with it on about 10 years ago.

The album itself always reminds me off this time of year so usually gets played daily.
