Showcasing a production style that is currently featured on projects by Joe Budden, Fabolous, Royce Da 5’9”, Lloyd Banks and others, Showbiz (producer of classic Hip Hop hits such as “Soul Clap” and “Sound of the Police”) provides a classic yet fresh Bronx production style while KRS-ONE takes it back to the essence of Hip Hop with lyrical contributions equal to those on classic KRS-ONE albums. Recent album reviews are calling this project a “modern classic” and “what Hip Hop has been missing.” FORMAT: CD — CATALOG NUMBER: DITC 308 — BARCODE: 6 11247 03082 0 rd AVAILABLE: May 3 2011 D-NICE CALL ME D-NICE 1.

It’s Over Scott Made Me Funky The 808 Is Coming (DJ Pooh Remix) When Boogie Down Productions’ DJ/producer/hypeman D-Nice went solo in 1990, the world wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Taking over as KRS-One’s DJ after Scott La Rock’s murder in 1987, D-Nice was a relative unknown, despite having played a part in the group’s classic albums By All Means Necessary and the follow-up Edutainment. Setting out to make his name as an independent artist, he delivered Call Me D-Nice, an album that abandoned BDP’s militant political rhetoric in favor of a fun, upbeat attitude that played to his strengths: witty and boastful rhymes backed by funky, sample-based beats. The album yielded a #1 hit with the title track (along with “Crumbs On the Table”, which made the Top 20) and proved that D-Nice could do much more than just play the background. Out of print for over 20 years, D-Nice’s debut album Call Me D-Nice returns in an expanded edition housed in a 6-panel digipak featuring original and extended artwork with liner notes for the bonus cuts written by Noah Uman. Extended Audio includes 2 non-album cuts (produced by Scott La Rock) as well as 12" mixes and instrumentals previously unavailable on CD format. Also includes the 12" singles "Glory" and "The TR 808 Is Coming." FORMAT: CD • CAT NO: GET 51271 • LABEL: Get On Down • STREET DATE: May 3rd AUGUSTUS PABLO Ital Dub 1. The Big R P-Off 5. Gun Trade 9.

Shake Down By the time he released Ital Dub in 1975, Augus- tus Pablo was already a household name in Jamaica. He was fresh off the success of his album Rebel Rock Reggae, and about to enter the most prolific period of his career with legen- dary dub engineer King Tubby, this being their first collaboration. Recorded and mixed by Tubby at his studio, Ital Dub, produced by Tommy Cowan and Warwick Lyn, features Pablo lending his signature melodica work to originals (“Eli’s Move,” “Shake Up”) and covers from Bob Marley (“Rebel Music,” “Natty Dread”), Peter Tosh (“Funeral”) and Junior Byles (“Curly Locks,” “Irie Feelings”). Overlooked at the time of its initial release, Ital Dub has since been recog- nized as a worthy entry in Pablo’s stellar catalog and “one of the most innovative albums of the decade” (AllMusic.com). After producing top quality reissues from Lee “Scratch” Perry and King Tubby, Get On Down is proud to present another Jamaican dub classic, featuring a new digital audio transfer from the original analog tapes.

Caroline’s Crawford’s career first began at the age of 15 on Motown Records where she recorded loads of songs but released relatively few! She re-surfaced on Philadelphia International in the early ‘70s with one brilliant single and a completely unreleased album, which stayed in the can as a result of disagreements with Gamble & Huff. An uncompromising singer, she teamed up with Hamilton Bohannon and sang background on his hits “South African Man”, “Foot Stomping’ Man” and “Summertime Groove”. Bohannon wrote, produced, arranged and directed the seven cuts. All Music Guide’s Andrew Hamilton writes: “His patented rhythmic, shuffling sound interspersed with some KEY SELLING POINTS: ballads make this an extension of his ”Summertime Groove” album which featured • First time ever on CD. Crawford’s vibrant vocals. This is good. • Remastered from the original Mercury analog tapes. Mercury’s neglect kept this album from improving • Packaged in Japanese style laminated their bottom line or Crawford’s career, in spite of paste on jacket, with full color inner sleeve, infectious ditties like “Tell Me You’ll Wait” OBI and poly outer. “Coming On Strong,” and “Caroline • Produced by Hamilton Bohannon.

Mister Badge: « Crazy Mister Badge » Fabrice, 17 years old, is a minet, or to say it better, a mod from one of the posh neighborhoods, the 16th district in Paris and such “golden ghettoes” as Auteuil, Neuilly and Passy. Fab’ likes to have his “ronron at the Drugstore”, as Dutronc sang it (an untranslatable wordplay on ronron, “cat food”, and a minet - “a kitten” - purring). Fabrice attends Henri IV prestigious high-school; his father, a businessman who made a fortune selling plastic flowers, and his mother, a former model from Jacques Fath, are never home – a cosy home indeed! With his Weston shoes, a slim-fitting suit by Renoma and his haircut modelled on those of Anglo-Saxons musicians appearing on French Eps, Fabrice dreams of Carnaby Street and the Sunset Strip. He is not alone: there’s his sister Stéphanie, 16, who wears a fringe, a mock Courrèges dress, a pink Shetland pullover and white boots. Stéphanie reads Salut Les Copains and Mademoiselle Age Tendre, which both fuel her passion for Françoise Hardy, Zouzou, Twiggy and the Beatles. The Groove Club is happy to present twenty-two records that we dug out as a tribute to Fabrice’s kinky faves.
