RARE/2HAND VINYL LP ON CHRYSALIS 1993.

Chrysalis CTLP 34 made in UK. Vinyl NM. Cover NM.

Though it can reasonably be argued that rap grew almost directly out of funk and its particular beat, there are a lot of overlaps with jazz, particularly the bop and post-bop eras: the uninhibited expression, the depiction of urban life, just to name two. Jazz samples have also had a large role in hip-hop, but the idea of rapping over actual live jazz wasn't truly fully realized until Gang Starr MC Guru created and released the first in his Jazzmatazz series in 1993. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guru_%28rapper%29
