Description

Crazy Town's 1999 Studio Album The Gift of Game Reissued for Its 25th Anniversary Edition on Colored LP. On Vinyl for the First Time!

Color Of Vinyl Subject To Change Without Notice / Call To Confirm Colored Copies Are Still Available

"Come my lady/Come-Come my lady/You're my butterfly, sugar baby"…If there was a song-track to the turn of the millennium, Crazy Town's "Butterfly" was it, starting with its appearance on the 1999 album The Gift of Game and winding up with its reign at #1 in the charts in February 2001. Anchored by a sample of Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Pretty Little Ditty," it forever defined the term "nu-metal power ballad," and was a rare-for-the-genre love song to boot!

But the album from whence it came didn't fly as high as it did, with over 2.5 million copies sold, just because of "Butterfly." The Gift of Game brings the noise with an all-out alternative metal assault, and the band's rappers—bolstered by guest appearances from KRS-One and Mad Lion—are markedly better than their rap/metal contemporaries.

And then there's the album art, created by member Shifty Shellshock's father and uncle, which lends a vivid rendering to the fantasies of every teenage boy listening to "Lollipop Porn." In short, this was a freakin' HUGE record that somehow…somehow!...has NEVER been on vinyl.

So how to handle its momentous debut on its 25th anniversary? Well, first, Real Gone Music created an inner sleeve with all of the lyrics (and there are a lot of 'em). Their sources also tell them that the very explicit hidden bonus track on the CD release has mysteriously made it on here. But when it comes to the vinyl, given what they anticipate is going to be, ahem, crazy demand, they have pressed the record on colored vinyl. Come dance with Real Gone Music and Crazy Town.
