De La Soul - 3 Feet High And Rising

De La Soul's 1989 debut began the trio's run of albums with producer Prince Paul. 3 Feet High and Rising places songs, sketches and short interludes in a single playful sequence, with Me Myself and I, The Magic Number, Buddy and Eye Know among its key tracks. The title draws on Johnny Cash's Five Feet High and Rising, while the record's wider sampling approach brings unexpected sources into hip-hop. This Chrysalis double vinyl reissue contains the twenty-three-track programme, ending with D.A.I.S.Y. Age and retaining the interludes that connect its full-length songs.
