Eric B: I Can’t Let You (Before I Let Go) 12″

Deadstock score of this obscure Eric B solo 12″ from 1995. Yeah this was probably dollar bin material in 1996, but 15 years have treated this 12″ real nice. That photoshop 2.0 cover and double-brested suit are kinda cool now, but what I’m about is that banging Eric B beat that samples Maze’s party classic “Before I Let Go.” Surprisingly, the vocal version ain’t too bad (featuring a spry Freddie Foxx!), but the Dub Version is where it is at, my furry friends. Also includes the instrumental. Original pic sleeve pressing. Recommended.
