Wild Pitch Records Reissues: From The Coup to Gang Starr

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
