Our Shaolin Soul vinyl album pack contains the following:

• Because Music: Shaolin Soul Episode 3 Vinyl 2LP+CD

Official 2018 represses of the O.G. French compilation series collecting source material sampled by RZA for Wu-Tang’s group and solo joints. Not to be confused with the RZA-approved Shaolin Soul Selection (which was a nice collection of rare Stax joints but… not the same), the Shaolin Soul series kicked off in 1998 collecting rare darts by Ann Peebles, Syl Johnson, The Charmels, Bob James and on and on. This pack includes the first 3 volumes, each pressed on double vinyl with included CD for a total of 60 tracks spread across (6) LPs and (3) CDs. These comps are the ultimate crate saver for any DJ rocking funky breaks or looking to build a clever bridge between soul and hip-hop segments in their set, or, load it into your MPC or SP-12 to get your sampling chops up (also tried-and-true backyard barbecue soundtrack). Going on 20 years old, they’re almost as classic as the original joints. Recommended.

• volumes 1-2-3 of the acclaimed Wu-Tang sample compilation series
• each volume pressed on black double vinyl w/ CD
• music label: Because Music 2018
