I was just watching the MIN interview on the Style Wars out takes a few days ago, I think it was done in '02.
-
Nice pics Zed, I remember riding the 7's in the mid-late 80's and there would be SAINT TMR tags going down every ridge across entire stations !
-
I was pleasently surprised to spot that Bruz along the water when we were visiting Queens a couple months ago, nobody has hit that wall for quite a while. You can see the newer cement under the B and R, where they filled it all in years back. That used to be a big stinky tunnel back in the day, was always great for emptying scraps and throwing m80's into. The good old stomping grounds.

I'll be looking forward to that book Epmd ! Zed, those are killer flix, loving that inside-Fuzz got busy ! Definitely spotted the Guardian Angels a few times back then, does ANYBODY have that movie that came out about them back around '81 or '82 ??? That had lots of classic subway action ! I think I vaguely remember the name Oster being somewhat prevalent in that flic.

Lovin' the fr8's, that industrial alley shot is nice. Haze aka SE3, SE3 was one of the freshest throwups out there back in the day, along with OE3 of course, in my humble opinion.
-
Nice series of fr8's !!
-
Also had forgotten about the NA & UN -THE UNION wholecars on the J's, those were sweet.
-
Just spotted the OD fills, along with King IZ, at the top of page 2 of this thread.
-
Some more forgotten names from back in the day... SIKO & RUST, FLAME-TPA, GREG (with the dollar sign in the G), PRO & SON, KOOL AD (Angel Duster), KEVIN/EX-1, I'm starting to notice the OD fills in a lot of the older photos and movies-I forgot about that dude, he was definitely up. Might have been OD-3 to be exact. So much history.

I did not attach those thumbnails above, not sure what's up with that.

VINNY tag on the front of that SS train, so classic !
-
Those rolling dumpsters are the best, they definitely get around !
-
I definitely don't know anything for certain about every fact or detail in his particular stories, but the NYC atmosphere in general back then was definitely along the lines he describes. Those were some crazy, yet wonderful times. Aside from the brutal actions of some individuals, I really miss the true freedom of those days.
-
Definitely a Sane/Smith book, and the BMT's would be sweet. Remember EKO and crew, they were rocking the lines ! The FUZZ book is ridiculous, I was just browsing through it again today and the crazy stories were killing me, and they are legit, that's how NYC really was back then.
-
Absolutely EPMD, a book on each and every line and it's writing history throughout the decades would be killer !!
-
It's great to see so many books by classic writers coming out ! Some that I'd personally love to see books about are IZ of course, OE3 & P13, VINNY, MIN & BOE, QUIK, ZEPH, GHOST & LOST, to mention a few. One top favorite so far is definitely the FUZZ book, so many classic subway shots, as well as great stories from back in the day in there.
-
That's one of the best tributes yet for sure ! Massive respect to the all-time NYC subway king IZ THE WIZ !! Rest In Peace.
-
Damn, that shot of the N train is killing me, King IZ AND Uncle John 178, such classics !!!

Re: NYC Subways - the good stuff
A nice BABY 168 burner just rolled by on a railbox two days ago.

Re: NYC Subways - the good stuff
Anybody else spot that CHRIS 217 tag, that dude was up !

Re: NYC Subways - the good stuff
Incredible, so many classics, definitely tugs at the heartstrings ! I vividly remember all those fresh SAK burners on the 1's, those QK fills with the faces, those lovely white surfaces. Thanks so much to everyone for sharing those jewels. Who's holding all the classic VINNY flix ??
-
Great classic HERBY catch, and COLOSSUS dedication to RIOT on page 9.
-
Great to see Mr Bass still out and about, that early Colossus (Gypsy Sphinx) catch on the lumber rack is a gem !
