There are two brief guest appearances; one by J Dilla, in a short, previously unreleased interlude dating back to his & Madlib's first collaboration and the other by MED, who is the sole voice on the short "The Exclusive", a theme song that first appeared on Jaylib's Champion Sound album where Percee P did "The Exclusive" interlude.
As of May 2011, this album's vinyl edition is back in print after the initial 1000 copies sold out at release.
"...is your ticket out of this hell hole and onto an 80-minute guided tour through three or four decades of Brazilian funk, psychedelic, prog-rock and jazz."
37-track instrumental hip-hop album produced by Madlib, inspired by and based on African records of the early 1970s – obscure & independent vinyl gems from afro-beat, funk, psych-rock, garage-rock & soul movements from different parts of Africa are all sampled to create a unique sound.
The majority of the album is instrumental, but a few selections feature him rapping together with his Oxnard crew C.D.P., which also included his brother Oh No.
A limited triple vinyl set was released featuring a bonus disc of 10 additional tracks from the same period.
Madlib Medicine Show #7: Bonus Tracks "Imagine an 80-minute music history course taking place in a dusty, hazy studio with wall-to-wall jazz vinyl - records from the past 40 years – jazz, fusion, funky, obscure.
"A 28-track hip-hop album of exclusive Madlib collabos w/ A.G., Guilty Simpson, MED, Oh No, Strong Arm Steady and others.
Karriem Riggins pops in for a Supreme Team session, Madlib & Oh No debut The Professionals, and we hear a Jaylib-era track from their never-realized second album.
Low Budget High Fi also contains several Loop Digga instrumentals and of course interludes, outerludes and probably quaaludes."
Odd numbers, beginning with #1 in Jan. 2010, will be original hip-hop, remix, beat tape and jazz productions; even numbers will be mixtapes of funk, soul, Brazilian, psych, jazz and other undefined forms of music from the Beat Konducta's 4-ton* stack of vinyl.” Years before this series was announced Madlib had talked about an idea to release an album a month.
