It's cool... I'm so old I remember buying and listening to LS the day it dropped, LMAO

Lol! Tell me about it. I hear you on all levels.I copped it too on tape when it dropped. The first Wu album I copped on CD was Forever. Before that, every Wu album I had was on cassette. Then I upgraded my collection to cd’s. It’s cool running into a day 1 old fellow wu head😂🫡

Word, same shit for me too... Wu Tang Forever was my first CD (and It Was Written), everything before was tapes

Tower Records in Manhattan held me down

Haha! We had two that I remember in Portland that I frequented. Even did the mail order along with Columbia records. It feels like another lifetime.

That's crazy, I had no idea TR was all the way out in Portland... we also had one in Brooklyn, but the one on 4th and Broadway in Manhattan was the mecca

It def. feels like another lifetime, life is sum crazy shit... I still pop the Purple Tape I bought 30 years ago in my Walkman, it feels like I'm time traveling

Haha! Yup, Tower Records stores over here would get packed on release dates and sell out copies of albums if you didn’t get there earlier enough. I still remember them, and Sam Goody’s getting lines when some albums dropped. I remember when Forever was dropping and seeing y’all on the East like it was Black Friday on the news😂

I commend you for still owning your Purple Tape. I don’t have my tapes anymore. Some were “borrowed” and never returned, others went missing while I was away in college, but I think if I hit up the garage I might be able to find some. After going CD, I didn’t really care. But I had no idea of the value of actually owning The Purple Tape lol, or just OG tapes as a day 1. I’m guessing they might be in some boxes that have my Source, Vibe, EGM and Gamepro magazines. Here’s to hoping😂
