Steeped in equal parts golden age hip-hop sensibilities and lost '60s and '70s film scores, the debut LP from Leroi Conroy weighs in heavy and has been years in the making. The first two tracks from the album were released in 2017 as a 45, which were sampled in the years that followed by DJ Premier, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, Macklemore, Phantogram, and more. But after its release, Terry Cole aka Leroi Conroy spent much of his time growing his indie soul label Colemine Records and producing records for others (Okonski, Parlor Greens, Wesley Bright, Black Market Brass, Kendra Morris, Rudy De Anda, Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio, Andrew Gabbard) as opposed to his own. Now, eight years after many of the rhythm tracks were put to tape on the trusted Tascam 388, Leroi Conroy's debut LP, 'A Tiger's Tale', will be released. The album is conceptualized as a hypothetical soundtrack to an alternate telling of Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book. The narrative here being man's quest to tame and bend nature to his will... and nature's response.
