Gap Mangione’s monumentally influential Diana In The Autumn Wind.

Remarkably, this is the first ever vinyl reissue, produced with the full and extensive participation of Gap. An exceedingly rare album, it’s been coveted by funk, soul, jazz and hip-hop sample fiends for decades. It’s unarguably *the* most sought after album for J Dilla / Madlib sample collectors.

With acceptable copies of this holy grail changing hands for $400, to call this reissue ”much-needed” or ”long awaited” seems to understate just how vital it is. It’s never even been bootlegged.

Gap’s story is told in his words alongside rare photos across a sumptuously designed 2-page insert. To augment this deluxe edition further, it’s all wrapped up in a beautiful, no-expense-spared luxury tip-on sleeve, as per the original hens-teeth release.
