Word Of Mouth & DJ Cheese - King Kut

Word Of Mouth & DJ Cheese - King Kut - Beauty And The Beat Records - 1985

There has been great debate over the years to which pressings on this label contain the RUN DMC samples.

After collecting for 30 years I have managed to find 4 variants of King Kut on the Beauty and the Beat label.

 I can confirm the first 3 in the list below all contain the RUN DMC Samples but the last does not. 


Variant 1 "King Kut "on the label 

BAD-100 in run out With Samples


Variant 2 KING KUT WORD OF MOUTH on the label 

BAD-100 in run out With Samples


Variant 3 KING KUT by WORD OF MOUTH on the label 

BAD-100 in run out With Samples


Variant 4 KING KUT by WORD OF MOUTH on the label 

BAB-100 RE in run out NO Samples



Notice how the first Variant has most of its letters in lower case compared to the other Variants which used upper case letters.

The first Variant also forgets to mention "Word Of Mouth" however the later Variants  do mention it.

The third and fourth Variants contain the additional word "by" on the label.

The first Variant is also the only pressing to have a hyphen punctuation mark on the label between BAB-100
