This one is a bit of a blast from the past for me, which I revisited recently. I used to listen to this tape back when I had to drive 45 minutes to work at a record store in a shitty little car that had no radio, no stereo, no anything. I had a little D Battery-operated boom box that I would keep on the passenger seat next to me, and I would listen to tapes to keep me company on the long drive to work. I special ordered this tape after hearing the collaboration that Milk did with Mike D called “Spam,” and instantly fell in love with the record. For those who don’t know, Milk (or Milk D) was the primary member of the legendary hip-hop group Audio Two. For this record, he collaborated with Mike D and Mario C of the Beastie Boys, and the record has an overall Beastie feel, come to think of it. Looks like vinyl copies of this EP go for over $100 these days. It’s not available digitally, but you can get it on CD over at Amazon
