Wild Pitch Classics

Golden era label Wild Pitch Records appears to have returned though I can barely find anything on what’s up with their return or their upcoming reissues of a number of classic albums on April 22nd.  At least a couple have been reissued by other labels in the last year or two and so we have a little mystery at the moment.

The Coup – Kill My Landlord

Noz seems to have found them the same way I did, via Amazon, but didn’t have the backstory though he did have a more complete list of titles.

Main Source – Breaking Atoms

Discogs has a Wild Pitch Records discography

Ultramagnetic MC’s – Four Horsemen

JCOR reissued some titles back around 2001 and then they went under.

The UMC’s – Unleashed

Wake Your Daughter Up has a nice history of Wild Pitch Records.

Chill Rob G – Ride the Rhythm

This Chill Rob G cover certainly sticks out from the rest.

The Coup – Genocide & Juice

Oddly enough, The Coup’s Genocide & Juice is being released May 6th by Pendulum Records rather than Wild Pitch, though Pendulum is also supposed to be deceased.

Additional titles being reissued by Wild Pitch Records:

Brokin English Klik – Brokin English Klik
Gang Starr – No More Mr. Nice Guy
Hard Knocks – School of Hard Knocks
Lord Finesse & DJ Mike Smooth – Funky Technician
Main Source – F*ck What You Think
O.C. – Word…Life
Super Lover Cee & Casanova Rud – Blow Up the Spot
The UMC’s – Fruits of Nature
