 ;D

so what do people think is the rarest desired westcoast CD, i dont mean some album that no-one is after but one that is heavily wanted but never been able to grab...this has been it for me (i think) - been hard to track down for a decent price (was still expensive) - really happy i have it now though ;D

Quality album! I found a MINT vinyl copy about six months ago for £15 in a second hand shop in London.

It's easily my most treasured 'rare' release, along with the 'Funk Upon A Rhyme' I found in a Birmingham indie record shop's bargain bin for £1 lol...

In terms of 'wants', it's still 'Uncle Sam's Curse' for me.

I bought the tape when it first dropped, back in the days before I'd moved to CDs lol... Pretty much every other rare release I've been lucky enough to find or hunt down, but that ATL on CD is still my holy grail... got to keep digging I guess!

Yeah some dude ripped me off for 200 bucks on Ebay for that >:( I will get it on Amazon sometime though, fuck if I have to pay a heap...



Mista Grimm - Things Are looking Grimm is also a true westcoast gem that NOONE seems to have

That's nice right there... Nice find Rud.

It's real hard for me to get any kinds of out of print records over here. That Mista Grimm record has haunted me as some distand prize for a while, but I don't think I even have a chance of getting it without a trip to the U.S. But then again, some records that aren't that rare are impossible as well - such as Kam's CD's. I've been wanting to get Made In America for a good while now, but no luck with these record shops over here. I bet I could find that no prob in the U.S. (Make me feel better by telling I'm wrong, please.) Bascially, it still needs to be in print and available at wholesellers for me to get anything. :-\

Well, the rarest album that I have must be "Made In America" (Kam). And I didn't get it by shopping the Internet, but I actually found in a store in Belgium, which is crazy, trust me. The album must've been there ever since it was released because the copy was a bit damaged and had literally dust all over it. I really couldn't believe my eyes...and it wasn't even in a Hip-Hop records store, just a regular music shop.
I also have "Conversation" (The Twinz) which I ordered from eBay...

I'm from Australia so it makes it hard as fuck to even get import albums let alone OOP's. I got a nice little collection of rare albums  ( not sure how rare they are in the States though) including:

Above The Law - Uncle Sam's Curse (I got a spare copy still sealed which is an import from Japan, might be able to hook someone up)
K-Dee - Ass, Gas or Cash
King T - IV Life
Kokane - Funk Upon A Rhyme (Japan Import)
CPO - To Hell & Back
Daddy V - The Compton OG
The Dove Shack - Reality Has Got My Mind Tied Up
Rass Kass - Rasassination

I don't think these are as rare:
Kausion - South Central Los Skanless
Gonzoe - If I Live & Nothin Happens
RBX - RBX Files (got a spare)
B.G. Knocc Out & Dresta - Real Brothers (got a spare)
Twinz - Conversation (got a spare)
Lil Half Dead - The Dead Has Arisen
Lil Half Dead - Steel On A Mission
Clee & Drank-a-Lot (Knumskull) - Good Lawd That's A Lot of Drank
Mad C.J. Mack - True Game

My wish list is Low Profile and King T's other albums :-\.

I have two picture copies singles of PS Phuck U 2.... but the 12" for the edited version is PS Play U 2 and thats extremely rare.   Kokanes Funk Upon a Ryhme and ATL's Uncle Sam's Curse are very rare in the OG cd... what do you mean they aint rare?
