Description

This mega-rarity from the dawn of recorded rap finally gets the deluxe treatment it deserves from Fraternity Music Group. Recorded in 1981 with a dynamic group of vocalists (including female MC Lil' Bit and Crazy Eddie, Barry B and Lil' Rich) and a band that included future South Bronx stars Jimi Hazel (24-7 Spyz) on guitar and Rockin' Rob on drums, “The Original Mean Machine” is a quintessential example of the excitement and energy of those early days when rap was making the transition from live performance to wax. Predating the introduction of drum machines and samples, the band (with additional cowbell from Anthony “Pepper” Rivers) rocks a high-energy take on James Brown for the Fabulous 4 MC Connection to rhyme over, adding an essential extended drum break that will open the eyes of those who only know Rockin' Rob as one of the best b-boy DJs in New York City. The killer break is included on both mixdowns of the track, the main mix and the acapella “Dub Mix,” primed for creative DJ tricks. “The Original Mean Machine” has been rescued from the multi-track master tape where it languished unissued for years, and meticulously remastered by Rob, Hazel and the Undercover Brother. It is now available on a unique format befitting its singular status: a ten-inch, large-hole 45. This configuration, a first in the world of vinyl collectibles, is coupled with a full color, artistically weathered sleeve with archival photos and recording details.

Both heavy hitters from the crates of Afrika Bambaataa and ground-level breakbeat classics, \"Uphill Peace Of Mind\" and \"Leave Your Hat On\" are blue-eyed soul of the finest, funkiest quality. The instantly recognizable break from Kid Dynamite (better known as Steve Miller's backing band) has been sampled numerous times, from back-in-the-day hits by Poor Righteous Teachers and Eazy E to recent bangers by Dr. Dre and Rick Ross. The Randy Newman cover by Balcones Fault on the flip side was a sneaky Bambaataa cover-up that is finally revealed, the mid-song b-boy break a highlight that makes doubles of this long overdue 45 a must.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2017-10-02T16:18:34-04:00","created_at":"2017-10-02T16:22:28-04:00","vendor":"Dopebrother","type":"45's - 7inches","tags":["\u0026 Friends","45","45friday","45s","45s7inch","7inch","Breakbeats 45","Breaks","Cream Breaks","Dopebrother45","Fraternity45","Kid Dynamite"],"price":1500,"price_min":1500,"price_max":1500,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":1978873970716,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"# 28 Cream Breaks Uphill Peace Of Mind - Kid Dynamite","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1500,"weight":54,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_quantity":42,"inventory_management":"shopify","inventory_policy":"deny","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/kaydeerecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/FMG-3_Front_221316a3-8bd1-4e7f-9071-6a65ce057f3f.jpg?v=1610430641","\/\/kaydeerecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/image_3c75b444-30ad-4c84-a300-228a67db6d42.jpg?v=1610430641"],"featured_image":"\/\/kaydeerecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/FMG-3_Front_221316a3-8bd1-4e7f-9071-6a65ce057f3f.jpg?v=1610430641","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":509759225955,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.017,"height":983,"width":1000,"src":"\/\/kaydeerecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/FMG-3_Front_221316a3-8bd1-4e7f-9071-6a65ce057f3f.jpg?v=1610430641"},"aspect_ratio":1.017,"height":983,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/kaydeerecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/FMG-3_Front_221316a3-8bd1-4e7f-9071-6a65ce057f3f.jpg?v=1610430641","width":1000},{"alt":null,"id":15902562812088,"position":2,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.003,"height":598,"width":600,"src":"\/\/kaydeerecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/image_3c75b444-30ad-4c84-a300-228a67db6d42.jpg?v=1610430641"},"aspect_ratio":1.003,"height":598,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/kaydeerecords.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/image_3c75b444-30ad-4c84-a300-228a67db6d42.jpg?v=1610430641","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/dV8jGorGmI8\" title=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehttps:\/\/youtu.be\/dV8jGorGmI8\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/DLVaHMpJXhg\" title=\"2\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehttps:\/\/youtu.be\/DLVaHMpJXhg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor the debut of Fraternity Music Group's latest imprint, the 1st Time On 7\" Series, the spotlight is on two massive cuts from the obscure '70s rock label Cream Records.
