The Roots - What They Do, excellent condition, 12"vinyl record, The Tonight Show

Description: Some artists used this stage for mini-performances while it became a means to deliver messages for others. The Roots chose the latter with the release of their video, "What They Do" from their highly acclaimed album Illadelph Halflife. "What They Do" is an LP that came from The Roots' Illadelph Halflife, their third studio album by American hip hop band the Roots, released September 24, 1996, on DGC and Geffen Records. It features a tougher and broader sound than their previous album, Do You Want More?!!!??! (1995). The album also contains integration of programmed drums and guest contributions by R&B musicians such as Amel Larrieux and D'Angelo, as well as jazz musicians such as David Murray, Steve Coleman, Cassandra Wilson, Graham Haynes. In 1998, the album was selected as one of The Source's 100 Best Rap Albums. In 2006, the album was selected as one of Hip Hop Connection's 100 Best Rap Albums from 1995 to 2005. The multi-track tapes recorded to mix the album were destroyed in a fire at the Universal Studios back lot in 2008, however, the original 1996 master tape remains unaffected.
