New York Sound Volume 2 - Various. CD. (BGP - CDBGPD 188) Second edition of the compilation embracing the sounds coming out of the five boroughs of New York in the late 70's. Ten rare and influential 12-inch mixes from the Spring and Vanguard label are gathered here, documenting the first jumps into hip hop including the first time the music was put together by New York funksters the Fatback Band with "King Tim III (Personality Jock)", as well as the response of Millie Jackson who appears with the rowdy "Had To Say It" available on CD for the first time in its full 12 inch mix. Also included is a single by Spectrum City, the first CD release of a track by an act that would become Public Enemy featuring the distinct voice of Chuck D. This collection is packed with sought after numbers that best represents the evolving, diverse sounds of the time.
