So, I may have missed a memo somewhere...

I was thinking to myself it's a shame that this collection doesn't include The Come On, as it was a b-side. I have the 12" but was thinking it'd be nice to have an MP3 so I went to i-tunes and typed in Crown City Rockers.

They don't have The Come On but there's a randomly different version of Mission:One (looks like it was a bonus disc for the Japan release maybe) with some instrumentals and remixes.

Did anyone out there know about this? Definitely worth checking out if you dig CCR. Highlights for me are Headnod and the remix of BS II MF - it's called "Puba Mix", could it be Grand Puba maybe?

Also really digging Shift, SummerSalt and You You You from the unreleased joints. Thanks Macy!

This set is pretty dope, but I still think Mission:One is the best thing they've done.

yeah, this is awesome. Another Day and the BBoy remix are always great but loving the other stuff haven't heard before too

Oh I am in love with them since I first heard "The Day After Forever". A group of 5 magical hip hoppers, Crown City Rockers are simply awesome :) Thank you so much for sharing this, Loved it. I wish I could be a bit of them. Want a similar inspiration in my work!
