PJ reviewed DJ Shadow's Endtroducing... (33 1/3) (33 1/3) by Eliot Wilder (Thirty Three and a Third)
Review of "DJ Shadow's Endtroducing... (33 1/3) (33 1/3)" on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Must-read for any fans of the album, DJ Shadow, or hip-hop in general. The introduction is a nice backdrop for the material that follows which, though in interview form, is almost entirely Shadow's words. He talks about growing up, recounts each step of the journey, sets Endtroducing... in its historical context and gives insights into how it came together. He recalls everything with incredible detail and offers plenty of nuggets which answer some of the "how"s and "why"s. This is a real behind-the-curtain look at one of the most important and inimitable albums ever made, told through the words of the creator himself. Thoroughly enjoyable read that will make you want to revisit every bit of early Shadow you can get hold of.
