Main Sources paean to the simple pleasures of relaxing with friends is built over two tried-and-tested samples. The dreamy, swoony sounds of Vanessa Kendricks timeless 90% of Me is You is ever-present during this stone-cold classic, while Sister Nancys unmistakeable Bam Bam lends several elements to the mix. Throw in some Skull Snaps and Sweet Charles and youve got the perfect soundtrack for a roll call of Large Professors nearest and dearest.
There are plenty of reasons why so many regard Breaking Atoms as an all-time classic album, and the sheer variety of singles lifted from it is chief among them. Large Professor was happy to roam over varied topics at a time when many rappers had a manic focus on one thing.
And where better to hang out with friends than at a barbecue? Live at the Barbecue is rightly regarded as one of the best posse cuts of all time, and famous for showcasing the debut of one Nasty Nas. While he delivers a dope verse full of quotables over drums from Bob James oft-plundered Nautilus, credit is also due to the other guests. Fatal and Akinyele arent disgraced in this company, and Large Professor tops it off with a rare verse of pure brag-rap.
An undisputed entry in the pantheon of head-nod hip-hop, this is its first official UK release, and another debut on 7.
