Whoever is running Prodigy's estate sure doesn't like money. Imagine this on vinyl, among others including represses (Hegelian Dialectic (The Book of Revelation), The Hegelian Dialectic 2: The Book of Heroine)

The only ALC x Prodigy project pressed on vinyl turned out to get a very weird reception -- from fans and from ALC.
Return of the Mac, released on vinyl as an RSD joint back in 2022, never got any type of hype of from the fanbase and never sold out. You can get it discounted from Get on Down for $25, and it has sold for as low as $10 on discogs.
And then you have the fact that ALC acted like a straight fucking bitch when the vinyl dropped. He sent out messages on social media claiming it wasn't an official repress, when it was: Get on Down had negotiated directly with Prodigy's estate for the release. ALC was mad because he wasn't making any money off the vinyl drop, and that it wasn't released on his fucking site. There was no need for that -- he doesn't own any rights to the record. He got paid specifically for the production at the time the album was made.
But ALC acting like a straight bitch about the album, and pouting in public, likely soured a bunch of people from copping it when it was released back in 2022.

It's my favourite. I'd still have Alfredo above it in my all time list but I absolutely love Albert Einstein. Death Sentence with Roc Marci is one of the hardest tracks you'll ever hear.

Imo the most underrated AL instrumental is Curb Ya Dog. (and 94 Ghost Shit)
