I'm not sure how new it is, but I found it at the bottom of my editor's discard pile yesterday and I just about bust a nut!
It's awesome awesome awesome.

Yeah, it's pretty fun, if a bit uneven. P. Diddy even shows up and goes all retro-'83, it's insane.

Horace, is this LUV based on finding a promo, or is this LUV that would justify dropping the $12-15 for a nonpromo copy?

Both? I've fallen to the bottom of promo hierarchy here, so it's been a long time since I've gotten anything from my most regular gig that I would actually listen to as a civilian. I don't know if it's cuz my interest in music is waning or if I'm getting really picky or something.
I would pay $15 for this. It's not a stellar album by any means, but the production is a lot better than I expected and Biz is Biz. It's loads of fun.
And forget P.Diddy, the Jazzy Jeff(!) production on "Tear Shit Up" rocks. It's gonna be my new theme song.

The promo was very different from - and superior to - the album as it was released so watch out.

how so?

also, what I got appears to be the regular album, there's no PROMO ONLY or anything, just a hole in the barcode.

― My Huckleberry Friend (Horace Mann), Thursday, 19 February 2004 19:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Uh, that IS the sign of a promo.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 19 February 2004 19:43 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah, but it's a promo of the actual album, not an advance PROMO ONLY version of it.
