I won't even try a list of recommendations because A.) It's too easy to
argue old-school personal preference and B.) The list would be too damn
long.  However, if you point your browsers to www.beatstreet.com you'll
find just about anything you might be looking for.  And if you can drag
your ass out to the borough of Brooklyn to visit this fine establishment
you will find yourself in old school heaven.  Mr. Magic's Rap Attack
compilation LP? Boogie Boys' 'Fly Girl'? Audio Two 'Top Billin'"?  Damn
straight son.  This store is a block and a half long.  Fucking ridiculous.
Originals and (mostly) boolegs (but you don't care cause you're in it
for the music right?) of your favorite old school jams.

PS- If you visit Beat Street, be sure to bring your credit card and a
valid photo ID, because you don't want to be carrying the amount of cash
you'll need around the Fulton Mall, and they like to confirm that the card
actually belongs to the person attempting to charge with it.
