I don't usually post entire LP's or mixtapes, but since I see a lot of other blogs posting old mixtapes, I figured I'd go ahead and hit you with a few old Tony Touch tapes. As far as I know these aren't being sold anymore, they are all well over 10 years old.
Tony Touch is well known for the 50 MC power chypa mixes he did, but you may not have heard some of the 50 tapes that led to those. I had dubs of a few of them a long time ago, but these rips aren't made by me. (They were sent to my inbox courtesy of DJ Fuse in DC, big up). The sound quality is decent, and each track is marked.
Here You get tape 43, Tape 44 (featuring freestyles from the Arsonists) and tape 45 (featuring freestyles from Smif N Wessun). All three of these tapes came out in 1995. I labeled them as best as I could, anyone who wants to fill in the blanks with the unlabeled songs let me know. As usual thanks to everyone sending stuff to my e-mail

Tony Touch Tape #45
*Bonus
This is a Bootcamp freestyle session that was on Tony Touch's 50 MC's tape, ripped from this duck down red label 12" that came out awhile back. It's about 10 minutes long and the instrumentals switch a few times. Unfortunatey it's radio edited.

NIIIIIIICE ....
ReplyDelete#44 was my first Tony Touch experience. I was pissed that I'd never heard of him before! Good looks on this upload. If I keep procrastinating long enough I won't have to encode any of my tapes!
ReplyDeleteTrack 10 is Naughty By Nature off the Povertys Paradise album. Shame on you for not knowing that Mr NJ! (jokes)
Track 11 is King Just from his first joint (does he have more than one?). He he saying "SEGA!" on that song? I always wondered.
Track 22 is actually Gangsta Dresta & BG Knocc Out. I don't know if they had an album but I have the 12"
Damn I used to know 27. That's not Council is it?
Damn you got me on that, lol, I skipped through this real quick and missed that Naughty joint.
ReplyDeleteI thought that was King Just too but wasn't sure. He had that other joint Warriors Drum or something I think?
Good looking though just fixed the list up.
Track 27 I'm not sure if you find out let me know would like to know myself.
Good lookin' out on this shit. Love the blog. Track 27 is "Hands Up High" by Phat Doug. The B-Side to his "Here We Go" record.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work.
nice, just updated again, good lookin.
ReplyDeleteI see some people sleeping on #45, don't forget about that one too!
That's your man DJ Fuse sending these Tocas in, he made everyone's day with this one
Thanks for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteI love old mixtapes...
Peace
tony toca esta loca
ReplyDeleteI'm listening to 43 now. How disappointed am I to learn that the beat Big L & Jay-Z rhymed to on Stretch & Bob was a MILKBONE song.
ReplyDeletelol, that is a decent beat too, Milkbone didn't deserve that. He was definitely on some now you see me now you dont.
ReplyDeleteGood looking out and thanks to DJ Fuse as well!! i haven't checked them out yet I have a few myself and I think I got a couple of these.Tony touch was my favorite mixtape DJ simply because he was consistent, didn't talk a lot, added a few cuts,and played that real underground hip hop at that time!!I could listen to tony's tapes straight through without fast forwarding!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dirty! Keep Real Mixtapes Alive!
ReplyDeleteDope post D.W. !! Tony Toca's mixtapes are definitely one of the best (can't forget Mister Cee and Doo Wop) BBbbrrrrXX
