Description
SugarHill Records was the birthplace label for hip hop. It gave listeners their first exposure to urban rhyming and scratching that transformed pop music during the '80s. Many of the 12' singles and vinyl versions of their classics have been out of print for years, missing the rise of hip hop during the 80's and 90's. This 12' boxset will not only be a must have for the listeners who grew up on the music, but for the DJ's to be able to go back to the beginning and mix each strategically placed single into their own vinyl DJ set. This 6 Disc Vinyl 12' Boxed set incorporates all of the label's classic A-sides - many in their full length mixes. Each 12 inch is packaged in a replica of the orginal 12 inch sleeves.
