Be sure to put Shade Sheist's "Informal Introduction" LP in there as well, Nate really shined on a couple of tracks there. Not to mention that the LP is great in it's entirety.

Listening to G-Funk Classics disc 1 as I type this, Never Leave Me Alone is playing right now damn...

Favourite song is I Don't Wanna Hurt No More. How appropiate maybe...

Rest In Peace OG Nate Dogg, the hardest man in town, the king of hooks, the best that ever did it.

Time to take that album of my shelf and bump it
His influece was huge, it wasn't a hit till Nate Dogg got on it. Ain't no fun, Xxplosive, etc. To much to count
The West lost one of his major players, one of my all time favorites. Nate , may you rest in peace

No doubt. That song is crazy. Actualy every song on the album is crazy. It issent one weak song.

My Money, Because I Got A Girl, Hardest Man In Town, Scared Of Love, I Dont Wanna Hurt no More, Never To Late----- There will never be released music like this again.

I ordered this album some weeks ago from amazon. glad i did it, cuz its probly sold out now,, if not ima buy some more copies...

Very under-rated album, thanks for this thread.

I got this album the day it came out, I remember Jermaine Dupri also dropped the 1492 album on the same day that had features from Snoop and Warren G.   So I was definitely looking forward to going to the record store that day...

The G Funk Classics album certainly deserved to go platinum, but to my knowledge it only did 300,000.  Maybe we can have someone check the numbers.

At first listen my favorite tracks were "Gonna Make My Money", "Me And My Homies" and "Just Another Day".   Later I got into the DPG joints that were on there like "Friends".   

...but the one song I always came back to whenever I was going through a hard time in my life back then was "Don't Wanna Hurt No More".

Been spinning this all yesterday and today, littered with G-Funk gems.

Nate's 'Drive-By-Shooting' hook on 'First We Pray' is chilling, sounds like the same style as used on 'Deez Nuts'.
