Deluxe Re-Issue of the German random rap classic !
LSD (Legally Spread Dope) were a pioneering hip-hop crew from Cologne who released their first and only album in 1991 on Rhythm Attack Productions (R.A.P.)
Heavyly influenced by the Bomb Squad, Ultramagnetics and the 45 King it took the LSD two years to produce and record the album. „Watch Out For The Third Rail“ is a sample masterpiece that is still unmatched in it’s raw energy and structure.The four LSD members were highly competetive. Records were covered before they got sampled. To this day nobody knows all records that got been sampled on the album.
The MPM re-issue releases features full instrumental versions of all tracks too and unreleasesed goodies as well. Booklet with never seen before pics and linernotes.The double vinyl instrumental version is limited to 500 copies!

"A timeless classic in German hiphop history that symbolizes the culture and the music when it felt good, fresh and full of life"
