Mapping Out The Stretch And Bobbito Show (Demos: Juggaknots, Kool Keith, etc..)

We've finally decided to give this a go. It will be tough, no doubt. But if everybody who has any little bit of knowledge at all about the WKCR legacy, would add on and build with us, it is possible that we can map out the show's entire history.

We've got people who are willing to rip your tapes to mp3 and mail them back to you. The Big Sleep has set up a "Stretch And Bobbito" blog to archive and keep the list of shows, dates, and guests, all together in one place.

Here's a few treats that have surfaced since we started this mission:

Juggaknots - Genuine (demo?)

MF Doom - Gas Drawls (demo)

Rampage - Mad Niggas (demo)

LL Cool J - ?? Unreleased Unknown demo

Organized Konfusion - Why (OG Buckwild demo version)

Showtime - I Walk The Line (demo)

Aiello Wilson - 80 Proof (demo)

Kool Keith - Time Is Now (unreleased demo)[best quality on the internet]

Nas - The Life We Chose (DJ Eli Remix)

[Download them all here.]

This is only a sampler of all the freshness that has surfaced so far.

Check the "Mapping Out The Stretch And Bobbito Show History" thread here for more treats.

Peace and thanks to everyone who has helped contribute so far, I hope I'm not forgetting anyone. Leave a comment if I forgot you:

Stretch may be coming through with a full, almost completely accurate, list of all the show dates and guests, soon. Hopefully some show rips, too. Stay tuned.

Juggaknots - Dopeness In Less Than 2 Minutes

All of us could agree that Juggaknots never succeed at the mainstream level, but their 1996 release was an underground hit, a true classic. When it was was re-released in 2003 with 11 additonal tracks (including some unfinished songs) their notoriety only grew, even though fame still eluded them.



Most will agree that these shorter songs are pure gold and wished that they were completed. Tracks like "Watch Ya Head (Remix)" or "Come Along" are pure gold, even better than some so called classics of that time. Breezly kills every verse.
