Talib Kweli & DJ Hi-Tek (Reflection Eternal) - Train of Thought Not On Label (Rawkus) KWELITOT001 2013 European Private Pressing on Double Clear Translucent Vinyl
This listing is for a nice private pressing of the debut album from duo Talib Kweli and DJ Hi Tek.  Released during the heyday of Rawkus records and the limited time where underground hip hop peeked it's head up into the mainstream, this is quality lyrics and production to match any era or faction.  
Although this does have an official release it only sold in small numbers and is very hard to find in good condition.  This private pressing is presented in stunning smoked clear vinyl and sounds fantastic.  It also enjoys an exclusive and very rare live version of The Blast along with a previously deleted title track Train of Thought, not available on the official release or on vinyl before.
Please check out my other listings for more hip hop rarities including nice copies of Black Star and Mos Def releases.
All of my records are play tested on a Project Debut Carbon with 2M Red stylus which is quite revealing so any sound defects may be more exaggerated than on other more mainstream players.  Or conversely if you are a full on audiophile I will let you judge how your set up compares and how you envisage the sound will compare.
I don't currently have access to a cleaning machine so please forgive any dust or finger marks which are on any of my records - hopefully will be investing in one at some point.
Record Appearance - M New stock not sealed from supplier, in perfect condition and a very high quality private pressing.
Record Audio - VG After more thorough testing there is a little surface noise audible when playing back.  I imagine this is due to this being a private pressing that some debris has remained on the groove from manufacture.  I would be confident that a machine clean should eradicate this but I don't have access to a cleaning machine unfortunately.
Record Sleeve - M Mainstream quality sleeve and is in as new condition, not sealed from the supplier.
All questions answered and offers considered.  Thanks for looking and please follow me and check out my other listings as they appear.  I work full time and have 3 children so please forgive any delay in communication but should be within 24 hours.
