A Real Epiphany
I've always been a huge fan of 1960s and 70s rock, like Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, CCR, Johnny Cash, etc., and in past years I've disliked more and more rap/hip-hop. I would listen to the popular tracks on the radio and enjoy them for a couple days until I realized they all are just terrible rehashed beats and lyrics about nothing. A few months ago I decided I wanted a good rapper/rap group to listen to, and I remember always seeing the Wu-Tang Clan appear in Chappelle's Show (my all-time favorite tv show), but I never listened to them. I bought "36 Chambers" with only the knowledge that it was rated very high here on amazon. When I first heard "Shaolin shadowboxing, and the Wu-Tang sword-style" I was confused to say the least. Then out of no where I hear "Bring the motha f@#%!n ruckus" and I was blown away. I listened to the entire album 3 or 4 times in a row, and then proclaimed to myself that the Wu-Tang Clan is the best rap group of all-time. Lyrics are very important to me in music, and today's music has no lyrical depth. The Wu has crazy good lyrics that took me a while to understand a lot of the metaphors used (I'm sure I still don't understand half of them, but that's a good thing in my opinion). Inspectah Deck's verse in "Protect Ya Neck" is probably my favorite verse of the album. Raekwon's verse in "7th Chamber" is tight as you know what. "Shake the ground while my beats just break you down" gets me every time! I also love the repeated terms such as "rap assassin", "rap fanatic", "Shaolin style", "Killa Bees", etc. They just used their own experiences, styles, and flavor in every word; something that isn't done very often today. Speaking of style and flavor, it amazes me that the Wu (mostly RZA) had the balls to incorporate so much Kung Fu and martial arts film references in this album. It really could have tanked the album, and certainly wouldn't be successful in today's world. But the risk paid off in dividends. It's the only album out there with such a unique style, which is evident throughout "36 Chambers". The beats are good enough to listen to without lyrics. It certainly has the 90s sound that put hip-hop to forefront of the music industry, but has unfortunately been abandoned over the years. To sum this up as best as I can, I owe the Wu-Tang Clan a lot for awakening me to what hip-hop and rap can be when done correctly. This album, as well as the other Wu-Tang Clan and Wu solo albums, will be on my playlist forever. I stepped to the Wu, and it was the best decision I ever made in my life.

A classic that I hear since the 90s
This is one of the first master pieces that I found when I was 17 and I remember the sound on tape or cd since then it was kind of low and over bass but cruel, obscure, and bizarre but deep and always make you want to hear it really loud and clearer which is the way that I can hear it now that I got the Lp and still the same sound but much clear and better when you equalized it to listening to it really Loud because is the definition of Underground hardcore Rap based on the samples and tools RZA use to make it RAW and making you feel under the bridge or into the deepest concrete jungle that no one has access and where you can hear alot of styles that changed the RAP music. I still having the same feeling and in regards of my copy it comes perfect and sounds great to me, no complaints I actually recommend this purchased I was scared at the beggining for being in Costa Rica but no regrets! Wu Tang Forever.

Hope you get a good copy
This is a review of the vinyl version, quality, Amazon experience, etc. not of the artist or music. Thankfully it all worked out in the end. The first copy I received was warped and the sound was at a very low volume even turned up high. I contacted Amazon and was issued a replacement that arrived in a couple of days. I had some apprehension that this copy would be much like the bad one I returned, but to my elation, I could feel right away that it was a heavier gram weight and not warped. The sound most importantly was also louder. Not sure what happens with these re-issues and new vinyl presses, different batches/runs, and where they come from, but apparently it's hit or miss. I see a few reviews complaining of the issue that I had yet rated it 4/5. If this wasn't resolved after receiving a replacement that was of better quality, I would have given it fewer stars. You're taking a dice roll apparently.

Dieses Album hat das Rap-Game verändert. Roh produziert, düster, lyrisch kompromisslos – Enter The Wu-Tang ist ein Meilenstein. Die Energie der Tracks ist bis heute spürbar, der Einfluss auf ganze Generationen unbestreitbar. Die CD liefert satten Klang und kommt ohne unnötigen Schnickschnack – genau wie der Wu-Tang Clan selbst. Klassiker mit Kultstatus.

Wu-Tang Clan es como lo mejor de todo. Cuando combinas los flows de Das EFX, la rabia de Onyx, la magia lírica de KRS-One, la energía de Lords of the Underground, las producciones innovadoras de Tribe Called Quest y los versátiles estilos de rap de Freestyle Fellowship, aún no tienes suficiente para describir a Wu-Tang Clan. Es más que eso. Un proyecto muy ambicioso de la mente maestra RZA, un álbum como éste debería haber sido un fracaso. Nadie había intentado nunca hacer un álbum con 9 raperos, no había reglas sobre cómo hacerlo. El Wu-Tang Clan estableció las reglas. Por lo demás, decir que el envío sin duda ha sido espectacular por parte de Amazon y el CD llegó rápido y en perfecto estado.

Me encantó el producto, el único detalle es que tiene las etiquetas del lado A y B invertidas, pero no afecta de ninguna forma la escucha. Si vas a comprar este producto, ten muy en cuenta que el volumen es mucho más bajo que el de otros discos de vinilo, así que tendrás que amplificar más la señal, si no tienes problemas con eso, es un excelente disco, un clásico del Hip Hop
