.. I always love finding hidden gems. Finding something that's rare or unique is just a rush, you feel like your eyes are open to unchartered territory- it's quite ill.
Hand me a late pass, but I found Kevin Nottingham's dope ass hip-blog today and I gotta shout dude out for these discs of unreleased and rare Common material. Comm one of the nicest out - but this is stuff you've never heard, or at least I haven't heard most of it so it's new to me. If y'all heard it before, then props 'cause this is exclusive.
Enough bullshit, let's get to the point - During their "Common Week" last week, Kevin Nott and Co posted Comm's original demo tape and various other lesser-known stuff from his earlier catalog.
Yours truly provided the Mick Boogie Uncommon, the demo leaked on FSD, Risky Bizzness compiled two UnCommon Classics tapes and DJ Giavanny & Team Invasion West hooked up Common Cold.
Check the links, & Good looks Kev!.. Enjoy!
