To all my old school hiphop people would know what Im talking about, I Know its by Frankie Cutlass, but would anyone know where I can get it? Mp3, Vinyl, whatever....let me know. Thanks

You can always buy it on Discogs--->>www.discogs.com

Yeah, it's a nice party joint (every once in a long while). It can get the crowd movin', but it can also get pretty monotonous as well, so never play this joint for too long unless you really want to put people to sleep.

...Unless you use relative mode with loops. I loop the meat of the song and drop out of it when necessary.

The 12"--non-bootleg--is probably still re-issued.

I found my copy on Breaks R Us. The one with the Carl's Jr Label on it. But I got mine when that vinyl first came out. I also have another copy on Stolen Breaks and another one on blue vinyl. The one on Stolen breaks sounds like shit. The one with best sound quality is the one on the blue vinyl or on Breaks R Us.

i have the 12inch original re-issue. On Hoody records if I recall correctly. It has the puerto rican day parade mix and the other mix, plus the original (which is fairly lame). Sound quality is fine. The label is green.

I have this track ripped from vinyl... It still gets awesome reactions as a break with the right crowd. A couple years back I used to blend it with the Freek-A-Leak instrumental.

Good stuff... I wore the hell out of that record. Nothin' by NORE - Crazy In Love - Beware of the Boys and Excuse Me Miss Again was a regular mix of mine a few years back. And then the Dawali Riddim... I might bring it back this weekend.

Hmm, sounds like a set I would play, great minds think alike?
