Unfortunatly for me, I didnt have decks back in 95, and now I do the one vinyl that would make my DJ life complete and me a happy man forever is 'Big L - Lifestyles Of Da Po & Dangerous'.

So, this is a long shot, but if anyone has this on LP, and feels like the credit crunch is becoming a bit too much for them, please PLEASE get in contact, I will happily take it off your hands for some sweet sweet ££ and give it a good home!!!! :D

i'd been stalking discogs for litterally months and apart from the stupid expensive copy, there has been sweet f a. Even looked yesterday and had resigned to never getting it.

massive thanks for all the quick replies.

It was repressed after his death so a wee check in any good HH wax store and you are bound to turn up a copy.

Think it was over something his brother did. Either way one of the best lyricists ever.

"fuck a benz i can pull skinz on a pedal bike"

Big L rest in peace.

I used to rinse Big L's tunes back in the days! Even made a remix of one track.

He is a fuckin LEGEND!

Pity he got killed a few block away from his home, because he was mistook for his brother. Some time later his brother was shot on the exact same spot.

Or that's what I've heard.

RIP Big L.
