J Dilla - Ruff Draft
| Availability: | Out of stock |
| Delivery time: | 1-2 weeks if available from supplier |
Released on vinyl only in February 2003, this much sought-after release was elusive and virtually unknown to the casual J Dilla fan until Stones Throw's reissued the album in 2007. Recorded in the wake of a failed deal with major label, Dilla returned to solo recordings as a fiercely independent artist with Ruff Draft. Includes detailed liner notes by Ronnie Reese discussing Dilla's career in 2002 when "Ruff Draft" was recorded. Tracks on this disc were taken from J Dilla's original master tapes, where additional previously-unreleased tracks 'Wild' and 'Take Notice' were also discovered.
US Import. Heavyweight double vinyl housed in a chipboard cover sleeve designed by Jeff Jank.
