I haven’t seen it in a long time in the US either. I got one in either a Target sale or Udiscover. Now volume 2 seems to pop up in less places as well.

I don't think the album was ever released fully uncensored. I've seen someone claim it was related to the terms agreed for clearing samples but I don't know if that is true.

not every swear is censored.. but it does seem like any usage of fuck is completely silenced... that's not a bad thing since it seems every version is like this, but its weird when you KNOW that a curse word was the end of a line and so you are dependent on the next line to even figure it out

It's not that weird since this is the only version of the album that's ever been released. Growing up in an era when rappers would routinely change their lyrics completely to get on the radio/MTV, a few censored muted curse words does not really alter my enjoyment especially when I have never heard it any other way.

Vibe says it was to secure Ron Carter for Verses from the Abstract:
20 Facts About A Tribe Called Quest’s ‘The Low End Theory’
Within every musical genre, there are a few select albums that are both definitive and transcendent. Upon their release, these albums often are deemed masterpieces, and over the course of time, prove to have seismic impact in pushing music forward. In hip-hop, A Tribe Called Quest‘s sophomore...

You would think VMP would tell that story, at least.

Am I the only person that enjoyed Interpol’s “El Pintor”?
I agree that the whole new york early 2000s “scene” was highly overrated and that VMP is a little too obsessed. But i haven’t bought anything from VMP since my sub ended with spiritualized.
I’m going to guess that the 2005 album is The Bravery’s s/t debut.

Didn’t we have this discussion about Ron Carter WITH STORF around the time of the Sorcerer RotM when he gave all the clues as mixed up pictures?

Yeah I've seen it a lot of places on shelves. Standard black edition though, not the fancy VMP

Is the sound quality any better with the VMP? Has anyone done A/B testing on it?
I honestly don't care about the colours, or extras if the sound is comparable. Not worth the extra $10-20 (in some cases) for me.
