De La Soul to Release Rare ‘Clear Lake Audiotorium’ EP Featuring A Tribe Called Quest
The six-track EP was originally released in 1994 with only 500 copies being pressed.
“Originally pressed in 1994 as an exclusive promotional release for select DJs, Clear Lake Audiotorium has achieved near-mythical status among collectors,” the group wrote in a caption. The album includes four tracks from the Buhloone Mindstate era, with two rare collaborations: “sh.Fe.Mc’s” featuring A Tribe Called Quest and “Stix & Stonz” with contributions from Tito of The Fearless Four, Grandmaster Caz, LA Sunshine of the Treacherous Three and Prince Whipper Whip.” The group representing Strong Island, fought long and hard to gain control of their catalog as they negotiated with their former label Tommy Boy for a way to get their music available on streaming services.
