Liquid Swords 30th Anniversary

[areohbee824]

Still got a original copy of the tape, CD and vinyl of this. My fav Wu solo album

 

[get these nets]

That RZA run of the 1st group album, and the first wave of solo joints is UNMATCHED.

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Great album from a great artist from a great group in a great era

 

[Sean7]

Restaurants on a Stakeout so order the food to Takeout chaos outside of Sparks Steakhouse

Killa Hills 10304... That line always stuck out, classic.

I own over 7500 vinyl, maybe 2000 cds and I don't know the number of tapes. This may be the album I've bought the most out of everything. Bouight it in 95, bought it again in 98, again in 2012. purchased the chess box record store day cd version, and also purchased the chess box record store day vinyl version(these came with a full chess set and instrumentals). The sun rises in the east comes in 2nd with 3 times purchased. (I'm not including dollar bin records like Thriller in the early 2000s)

let me make a correction to this statement. I was wrong. I forgot about the Roots Things Fall Apart album. I've bought that album more than anything else because I own 7 copies due to the 5 different covers I collected. I finally got the last cover I had been searching for during the 25 years since it's release last year. I remember the day I went in the store and saw all of the covers and the first one I bought was the girl running from the police because that's the picture I was familar with. Turns out that was the easiest cover to get and the one they always show when pertaining to the album. So yeah, I have 7 copies of Things Fall apart due to the different covers.

Isn't it coincidental how it's the 30th anniversary of Liquid Swordz.

Gza mentions "Mr. Wedding" on 10304

And years later, a different guy named Mr. Wedding (A Canadian former Olympian)

Is on the FBI's most wanted list for essentially being 2025's Pablo Escobar

Olympian Turned Drug Kingpin Ryan Wedding Accused Of Ordering Murder Of Witness

Olympic snowboarder turned transnational drug kingpin Ryan Wedding allegedly ordered a hit on a federal witness who agreed to testify against him, according to Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Liquid Swords and Hell On Earth are the GOAT winter-time albums.

Nobody was fukking with GZA at this time

Yo, picture bloodbaths in elevator shafts
Like these murderous rhymes tight from genuine craft
Check the print, it's where veterans spark the letterings
Slow-moving MCs is waiting for the editing
The liquid soluble that made up the chemistry
A gaseous element that burned down your ministry
Herbal vapors and biblical papers
Smoking Exodus, every square yard is plush
fukk the screw-faced photo sessions, facial expression leaves impression
Try to keep a shark nikka guessing
Give crazy shouts, son, here's the outcome
Cut across the semi-gloss rhymes you floss
shyt is outdated, just like neckloads of Sterlings
Suede-fronts, bell-bottoms, and tri-colored Shearlings
I ain't particular, I bang like vehicular homicides
On July 4th from Bed-Stuy
Where money don't grow on trees and there's thieving MCs
Who cutthroat to rake leaves
They can't breathe, blood splash, rushing fast like running rivers
I be that whiskey in your liver

Those albums do bring up winter time memories every time I think about listening to them......

I once read - it's the run from 36 Chambers - including Gravediggaz debut - up to Supreme Clientele.

Do you agree?

What do others think?

Missed the wedding…

I thought it's " That N$&&4 Mr. Weddings late by a fukking half hour"

 

[YakSpiller]

Gonna spin this back tomorrow.

I’ve been listening to all my favorite Wu albums. Had to to go through Ghost first though.

Where do you keep all of it.

Where do you keep all of it.

I have a room in my crib dedicated to all of it. The walk in closet is the vinyl/cd storage. I only keep about 4500 vinyl in the house with the cds and the other 3000 or so vinyl in storage. the rest of that room is a studio/library. I'm still running out of space because I keep buying new books and vinyl every month so in 2 years I have to sell this and get a new house with more bedrooms.

Facts.

I think about this, all the time. It was a ridiculous amount of output, but the work itself was flawless every damn project. From '93-'96, RZA ain't miss once! Bro was dropping classic after classic, like clockwork. That run needs to be studied. He was out of his damn mind! LOL!!
