Here's where I got that information (though it's cited a bunch of places now):
http://konstantkontakt.blogspot.com/200 ... serch.html
I believe that he's saying that Two Kings in a Cipher was the same night as MC Serch but I'm unable to be sure.
And just to clarify for everyone, we are looking for complete rips of full shows (not freestyle compilations or demos this time, that's for another thread).
If we don't have a whole show then partials can and should be used as placeholders until (hopefully) a better version surfaces. Also, if you have two copies, one with sides A and B and one with split tracks, post both if you can because people have different preferences (and sometimes like to collect both).
This thread is meant to focus on what is retroactively known as the Stretch Armstrong & Bobbito (radio) show (which took place from late 1990 to '98) though I'm sure CM Famalam shows and shows with Stretch and / or Bob filling in on Hot 97 would be appreciated as well. Or perhaps that's another thread also.
Nonetheless, the point is Stretch & Bob, '90 through '98, post 'em up (and try to give credit to the blogger, poster, ripper or uploader if you can).
I will try to continually edit in the highest quality and most complete rips so long as people are posting them and / or they are still being found online.
RELM wrote:It would be great if we could get full shows, talking included. Props to Verge & Big Sleep.
Thanks, that is the plan (and the goal).
And thanks to all of those who have, are or are going to provide rips and / or information for us and this thread.
Unless a more complete copy has already been provided, don't worry about the fact that the show recorded isn't the full one (or that the quality isn't great or whatever).
Dates (even general, year estimates / ballparks) are going to be really important for the chronology of this project to truly show through, so even if you have nothing else to help out with, this aspect of the history is essential for what we are trying to do.
Also if you remember someplace online that links to Stretch & Bob shows let us know.
I'm happy to help organize this but that's about all I can actually do (other than search), I definitely can't do this single handedly.
Links will have to be reupped, tracks will have to be I.D.ed, shows will have to be ripped / upped / posted and information will have to be given out.
In the meantime I'll continue to scour the forums (and elsewhere online) for what's already readily available.
