What an album...it's improved with age as well. Rza's
early production was special, he seems to have steadily lost
it as time has gone on, whether it is down to having more
options sonically (better equipment etc.) or something else
his music sounds flat now.

All the MC's sounded hungry on the album as well, something
which has degraded over time. They may be shit now, they
may never again produce anything as a unit again, but back
when it mattered they were superb.

I remember when it first came out and people were
criticising certain production faults, like the MIDI track
clearly resetting half way through Protect Ya Neck. These
things made the atmosphere of the album all the more
pronounced. The whole thing sounded grimy and dirty...

"What the fuck you mean is he fucking dead? The nigga's
laying there with his...all types of fucking blood coming
out of his head"

RZA's bass lines have this really deep resonating buzz tail
that make them sound like no other hip hop i have ever
heard...

this album is most definitely a classic. i'd go as far to
say it's the best hip hop album of all time.
or for me at least :|

Yeah, RZA was in some downtime there for a while (all his
best beats went into the solo-projects of the wu-members,
while the collective efforts kind of re-used that same
material, only worse. However, on Iron Flag he's back in his
ace, and so are all the members! It's like they went back in
time, to the good ol' days ("caaan it be that it was aaall
so simple, baby?!") and recreated the feeling of their
former glory!

36 is DEFINATELY a classic, and I listen to it quite often!

Got this on vinyl recently. Absolute classic, and one of my
favourite albums.

i bought it at the same time i bought the downward spiral.
sometime in the spring of '94.
