Lighter Shade Of Brown - Layin' In The Cut {1994, Mercury Records}


I don't remember much about Lighter Shade of Brown other than them being two laid back Latino cats from Cali. I remember they dropped some dope singles from their first two albums. My favorite was "On A Sunday Afternoon," but I never saw anything of theirs on a store shelf in my neighborhood. All that changed when I picked up this album from a Hastings back in TX. I wasn't familiar with it at all, but I knew that "Hey DJ" was a dope single (not to mention it came out in '94 -- a great year for hip hop). From what I've read about it, this is supposed to be their least potent album. That being said, I knew I had to get my hands on the others, because this is a dope album. Oh yeah, uh, I couldn't find any decent album art on the 'net, so I had to snap a flick myself. Enjoy.
