Blowing Down from that album samples this great track 👇 youtu.be/nx-_cvuPVko?...
Thank you for this!
One great album sampling another great album.
One of em is from town, I bought half of his dad’s record collection. Even though it had already been picked clean it still had great stuff.
They're on tour! I just saw them in Chicago.
Digable was that group that refreshed your stream when one first heard them way back when
On my table m.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
I am able to dig the 'planets.
I have turned on 100s of people to the Digable Planets over the years. Jazz samples and hip hop - two great tastes that taste great together. (Still, “Cool like Dat” from their first album gives it the edge over blowout comb)
I used to use Jettin' as a soundcheck the lows and mids are so warm and good
Borough Check is the jam…
I went deep in the rabbit hole to find everything the DPs sampled on Reachin'. Would be fun to do the same for Blowout Comb. open.spotify.com/playlist/4A2...
9th wonder is my favorite drum beat of all time.
OMGEE, me n' one of my roommates were playing this ALL the time when it came out... 🥰🤩 #Memories
Love to see this. BLOWOUT COMB is one of the deepest & best sounding albums ever made, but “Black Ego” is always my go-to representative track too. Even ends with one of the great jazz guitar solos on record!
I love that album. Excellent choice!
9th wonder man alone...
Just an amazing musical and cultural experience top to bottom. I still find it baffling that they mostly vanished (were vanished?) after this one.
Oh wow, thank you: been FAR too long since I last heard this track.
I remember seeing them in, like, 1993? Ladybug touched my friend's head and I thought he might die from happiness
Phatter than a 94 land cruiser
Your music selection is always on point! ✌🏼
One of my favourite albums of all time. I've probably listened to it from start to finish more than any other album.
+1
It's so great! I go back to Digable Planets a lot.
Wish I had the original vinyl release but the reissue i bought last year on clear and purple vinyl sounds exquisite
We're just babies, man.
I’ll never forget the year of Blowout Comb.
I can’t recall another song that makes use of Stubblefield like the slowed waaay down version on 9th Wonder
Revolutionary cool. Intellectually smooth. "Proletariat, Cad-i-lac steering it."
One of my favorite album covers also.
they must be quietly marketing because i just rediscovered this the other day
i recently learned they have a live album and its incredible
Whenever I think back on how great this album is, I realize the track I’m thinking of is on Reachin’
You might like the Black Pumas then. They are a modern retro group in the best way.
I just bought the reissue and blew out my speakers with it tonight while dying my teen daughters hair tonight. It's been a good night.
Wow!! 🤩
I got to see them on their 30th anniversary tour of their first album @ the Starland Ballroom. After the show they came down and just talked with a lot of us it was one of the best concert experiences I've ever had
