Additional Description

Processing Information

All tape descriptions are written by Troy Smith and were taken from http://www.historicalhiphop.com/. Smith’s original tape titles have been revised for clarity. Tape length has been removed from titles and added to the end of the tape’s scope and content. Dates were also removed from titles and added to the dedicated date begin and end fields. Where necessarily, punctuation and capitalization was adjusted to provide consistency and clarify artist and venue name. “Side A/B” designations have also been adjusted for clarity.
