Members tomhayes Posted July 4, 2008 Members Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) I believe that Jazzy Jeff produced a mixtape for the Roots that contain tracks from the album Things Fall Apart (an album in which Jeff appeared as a guest.) I remember seeing one of these on cassette in 1999 at a Roots concert, but I was unable to get one. Does anyone have this mix tape? Can anyone provide me with details about it (such as the title, the tracks, any catalog numbers) so I can attempt to buy an original somewhere on the net? Thanks in advance, Tom Hayes Edited July 4, 2008 by tomhayes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Hero1 Posted July 9, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Damn I'm listening to this again and its bloody good So much better than I remembered. Jeff actually mixes in a lot of older roots tracks which I didn't remember. Uploading now, so I'll post it shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Hero1 Posted July 9, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 This mixtape reminds me of how good the roots were and how things literally fell apart since that album. Malik B and Black thought going back and forth was the roots and losing malik b they really lost a lot and the complete abandonment of jazz music didn't help either..

Thanks for uploading this. is there any possible way for you to scan the case, or to maybe just detail all "identifying" marks and titles on it (catalog number, exact name of tape, etc.0 I'd really like to obtain an original and it might help my search. Thanks for all the help 9and the MP3.) -Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Matttuton Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Any chance you could re post that Mixtape, the link seems to have aexpired I would be forever in your debt, I had a copy of the tape years ago and it was cruelly ripped from my grasp during a move. Mann many thanks in advance matt This mixtape reminds me of how good the roots were and how things literally fell apart since that album.
