Peanut Butter Wolf
My Vinyl Weighs A Ton

Listening notes

Peanut Butter Wolf's My Vinyl Weighs A Ton was released in 2001 on Stones Throw Records, catalog number STH 2017. The release occupies four sides of vinyl, spread across what the format and track positions confirm as a double LP configuration, with sides A through D each carrying their own sequence of material.

The tracklist runs to seventeen entries spanning genres documented here as conscious hip hop and turntablism. The album opens with the brief "Sit Down And Shut Up," clocking in at fifteen seconds, a pattern that recurs across the record with several short interstitial pieces breaking up the longer cuts. "Styles, Crews, Flows, Beats" at five minutes and fifty seconds and "Tale Of Five Cities" at eight minutes and fifty seconds represent the most extended tracks on the release, the latter anchoring side C. The shortest entry is "Hawaii 5000" on the final side, running just eighteen seconds.

Side A carries four tracks, including "In Your Area" and the nearly four-minute "Casio." Side B is the most densely packed, holding six tracks, among them "Rock Unorthadox," "Necromancin," and "Breaks 'Em Down," which closes the side at three minutes and fifty-nine seconds. Side C moves into longer territory with "Tale Of Five Cities" before concluding with the sub-minute "Theme From A Peanut Butter Wolf." Side D rounds out the record with four tracks, ending on the eighteen-second "Hawaii 5000."

The title itself, My Vinyl Weighs A Ton, is a statement that sits comfortably alongside the physical format chosen for this release.
