Release date: 23-11-2009 (originally released in 1978)

2009 Dutch exclusive limited Music On Vinyl edition 50-track 3-LP set pressed on 180gram VIRGIN VINYL- East-coast hip-hop made a return in 1993, thanks to a troupe of Staten Island, New York, MCs with a fascination for Hong Kong martial-arts mythology and producer RZA's love of menacing atmospherics. Hip-hop had been harder, but it had rarely been this dirty.

The group, obviously fond of kung-fu movies, renamed their Staten Island home base 'Shoalin' as a tribute to their favorite 1978 movie ´The 36th Chamber of Shaolin´. Musical mastermind and ringmaster The RZA used loads of sound bites and samples from kung fu movies for his bleak, raw Wu-Tang sound

When The Wu-Tang Clan dropped their debut LP in 1993 they created a blueprint for Hip- Hop for years to come. The album was immediately recognized as a landmark album, with its raw production and explicit lyrics drenched in martial-arts symbolism and humour.

The Wu-Tang Clan collective proved a creative crew, releasing many solo albums of their core members (most notable: Method Man, Genius/GZA, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah and the late Ol'Dirty Bastard!), yet the success of their first album as a group was never to be topped.
