LSD - Watch out for the Third Rail (1991) 2007 Re-issue

A milestone in rap from Germany. LSD (Legally Spread Dope) put out this very sample-heavy piece of work at a time when nobody else in Germany did it that way. (You can tell this album has some years on it just by looking at dudes' hairdos. ;)
I remember listening to this for hours on end. In 1991, the instrus weren't out yet, so this reissue with included instrumentals is my opportunity to listen to the beats without the slightly muffled English raps over them. Not that the raps were bad, considering... but the production by far outshines the rest, so this is really the part you need.
