classic 220 has more complex tracks with lots of intruments which i suppose from a producer perspective is better whereas their eponyme lp is more simplistic with a bassline ,break beat, scratch but has puchlines for years to come imo.That's what was good in the early 90's the instrumental part wasn't "that good" the mc had room to express himself and then slowly but surely it all went down the toilet.That's the real bad side effect of technology if you ask me.Einstein said it better: simplicity is genius
funky stuff. quik flipped the same sample for a tony toni tone track too (thinking of you remix), which sounds a lot nicer
