Kaskade89052 Audioholic Ninja Mar 31, 2026 #5,966 Had this classic on cassette when it first came out; happy to have it on wax to add to the collection. Found this original pressing for a decent price on Discogs, and the condition was near mint, with just some light surface noise after a deep cleaning...

Kaskade89052 Audioholic Ninja Apr 7, 2026 #5,976 Found a near-mint copy of this Hip Hop classic, which was a favorite of mine when it came out in '88 (I had the cassette back then); Derek B was a UK-based rap artist/DJ who only had this one album to his credit (alongside a bunch of singles), and who unfortunately passed away at the age of 44 from a heart attack. The big single in the US off this LP was "Bad Young Brother," and it's definitely a banger. Bullet From a Gun was released in the UK on a different label initially, but Derek was eventually noticed and singed by American Hip Hop mogul Russell Simmons, who put the album out on Profile Records in the States. This pressing was dead quiet after a cleaning -- to the point I thought it had never been played -- and the jacket even had the original hype sticker on it. So cool to have this on wax and to be able to add it to my Old School Hip Hop section of the vinyl collection.
