DIGABLE PLANETS- live with David Letterman Band 1993 - VHS - from TV

Here's the smooth laid back posi-tivi-tee from DIgables.
When they were promoting their first album, they did a few TV appearances.
Check out the Longbox CD! Must've been the last year they had those..I thought they phased those out in 1990! So check the band. They subbed in the Letterman band and they have the right chops in this case to pull off some classic hip hop. The snare is even right! Soundsas good or even better than the Delicious vinyl/Brand New HEavies live project that came out a few years previous.
Quality is mediocre, but I didn't have high end VCR then, and the signal was pulled in from across the border by antenna. Those were the days.
Enjoy the hip hop before it go saturated in the G-thing.

These brothers and sistas are the truth... They were unwrapping something new, genuine and super dimensional way back then... this is what got me thru high school and kept me conscious of the world of many colors and standards.. Cause we all Digable,,,,In our own way!!!!!!! Brooklyn!!!!!
