Buck 65 Mix

Note: I didn’t include anything from the great, great Square album, because my copy is only cut into four long tracks. There are at least 15-20 actual songs on the record, but I don’t know any of their names and wouldn’t even know for sure where they begin and end. The record plays through like one long mix, and works very well in that way. I highly recommend finding a copy of this album before it’s impossible to get your hands on. Great album cover, too. 

Also: I didn’t include anything from the Dirtbike albums because they only come in the form of one long track. Like Square, each of the Dirtbike records have 15-20 songs on them. You can download them for free at www.Buck65.com, so do that!

Lastly: I haven’t heard the album Buck 65 did with Sixtoo under the Sebutones moniker for years. I remember it being quite good, but can’t include anything on this mix because I can’t recall the details.

Also/Note/Lastly/etc.: I haven’t heard everything Buck has ever done. He has some EPs and singles that I’ve never heard. He has an album he did with another artist under the name Bike For Three that I’ve only heard once. I remember it being quite good.

Anyhow, before we geek-out you to death, here’s our three-part Buck 65 introductory mixtape. Awesome stuff ahead for sure …
