The Goats - Tricks of the Shade

Columbia/Ruffhouse CK53027. 1992


Damn funky intelligent hip-hop. 

I programmed a 'favourites' setting on my old CD player for this to cut out every other track, as they've got an annoying story thing going on through the album in between the toons. Don't people listen to their records before releasing them? Surely they'd have realised it would boil the piss of even the most patient hippity-hopster to have to skip the skits every listen.

Just to reiterate - this is really, really good. And that's from a chap who wears clothes that actually fit.
