Tha Alkaholiks ג€“ Make Room / Last Call 12" ?

[Jaz]

This cover was for the promo version?, mine is in storage and I was wondering why I had seen the same 12" with a different cover before.

Which version do you have?

"Make room for the crew with beats that thump..."

Here's a photo of my copy - one of the promo 12"s:



Here's the artwork for the regular 12" (not my copy):



Both have the same tracklistings.

The first one is the one I have as well Mark 563, I wonder why they released it with a different cover for the official release?, I had no idea that the one I have had since 93 was actually the promo.

Great track one of my all time faves, Mark 563 were you at the Melbourne concert in 2006?

That shit was one of the greatest shows ever, one of their "last" shows too haha

[step one]

My copy is a repress (pretty sure its legit) of the promo that came out around 2002/2003 but still has the promo artwork.

I didn't think it ever got a legit repress.

Jaz, I missed them live in Melbourne. They also famously played out here on 9/11 - most of the Melb Hip Hop heads would claim to have been at their show during the plane attacks.

I was actually told that by a Melbourne cat I met at the gig, he said it was crazy being so hype and then coming out and thinking about the magnitude of it all, by the way fam, I really dig your art.

Peace

Cheers Jaz. I've put some more illustrations up in this thread:

Woooowwwwwwwww...

Your cover is the one that I have also. I've never seen that other cover before. Discogs has the "liquor store" cover as a promo but I bought two copies of it with that same cover. I also got promos of "Make Room" from LOUD and the only difference were punchouts over the UPC. The only promos LOUD would do that were different from the retail that I can remember used cutout jackets with white or black center-labels.

This was definitely the original USA 12" jacket. Maybe the other cover was used in other territories or could've been alternate for stores that didn't want to promote liquor stores, even though they are outside of a bar? I understand the group was called Tha Alkaholiks but you never know, especially since they were West Coast-based in the early 90s.
