Clear vinyl pressing ltd to 700 copies. Somewhere in between the rock-star mischief of the Beastie Boys and the slow-creeping funk of Dr. Dre, Cypress Hill introduced their hazy-eyed sound to the world on their self-titled 1991 debut and things have never quite been the same since. The original Cypress Hill album captures the group at their risk-taking best, mixing gangster posturing, LA street politics, Latin flavor and warped humor together under a thick cloud of weed smoke and innovative beats. Nasal-voiced rapper B-Real and his partner Sen Dog, backed by the adventurous production styles of DJ Muggs, produce classics records like How I Could Just Kill a Man, Pigs, Stoned is the Way of the Walk and Hand on the Pump. Since its release, the album has won acclaim as one of Rolling Stone's Essential Recordings of the 90s and Top 100 Best Rap Albums by The Source magazine. Get On Down is proud to present one of the most influential and important hip-hop albums ever, Cypress Hil clear vinyl release, featuring audio remastered from the original source tapes.

The House on The Hill that Muggs Built
Cypress Hill is way too raw. For today's standards that is.In their time, it was too easy to pass them up because of how much talent was being let free on the record industry.But nonetheless, going through their back catalog now is a welcome refreshment from all the noise heard on the radio today.I could go into a lengthy explanation about the grit and sweat-soaked beats, the hardened lyrics full of spit and venom, but really you need to check Cypress Hill out for yourself. It's under-stated, mean, and anti-authority.

False Advertising
Not as advertised. I did not recieve a white / clear vinyl but a normal black one. The vinyl number even pops up as white / Clear on discogs.com.

Amazing Beginning for CH
This cd is by far one of Cypress Hill's (CH's) best cds; in my opinion, second best to their "Black Sunday" album. However, I am partial as the "Black Sunday" album was the first of CH's that I had ever listened to... back when I was just a lad.Anyway, the beats are traditional for them (if you have ever listened to any of their stuff); with a heavy bass sound projected from a woofer... along with the frequent "echo shouts" and sirens/screech sounds in the background. The vocals/raps are mainly projected from somewhat nasaly, but talented flow-er B-Beal.While traditional, it is a style and sound that I have grown to greatly appreciate... no it is not your 2Pac; or even the current talent of somone like The Game for that matter... but it is what it is. If you have heard and liked any of CH's later stuff, I am sure you will enjoy this cd. If you are new to CH's music, perhaps you may find a better respect for them by listening to the "Black Sunday" cd first.

The Best Cypress Album
I've recently been trying to catch up on all the Cypress Hill albums I've missed over the years, but this is still always my favorite. Almost every track is a classic and it's definitely a must-have for any hip-hop head.

Classic Hill
Great album. Their first three albums are probably their best, it goes a tad downhill from then onwards.
