all good Krisch and Versive...Talaam was possibly from the UK and this album is pretty rare.

He did two 12"s before the LP. 'Funky Drummer' in 1989, and 'Its A Political Thing' in 1992.

I've read various things over the years that says this was a UK Hip Hop album...Discogs just says that the label the records were released on were a US one?

Let's get to the bottom of this JankZ :)
