Album Cover
Gang Starr
Jazz Thing

Single UK 1990 on CBS label
Hip-Hop/Rap and Jazz

Packaged in a card sleeve. Quote from Spike Lee printed on rear sleeve as follows: Not everyone is fortunate to have a jazz musician for a father and grow up in a household listening to the music. It is my hope that maybe, just maybe, some young folks will know from this film "Mo Better Blues" and the single "Jazz Thing" as much about Duke, Coltrane, Monk, Diz, Mingus, Billie Holiday, Bird, etc...etc...etc..., as Public Enemy, Biz Markie, L.L. Cool J, Hammer, Queen Latifah, etc...etc...etc...etc... Spike Lee - July 13,1990
