I was listening to the album this morning and I just noticed lol, Hell's Wind Staff, Swordsman? It has 14 tracks in the book but 13 songs on the cd.
Hells Wind Staff is missing.Swordsman is 12 followed by BIBLE
Edit : 11 is Swordsman, 12 Gotcha Back
O aight thanx, I was looking at that shit like wtf? So Swordsman is the G.O.D. track?
I'm confused now, so which one is the Unexplained track?
Cheers!
hells wind staff isnt there. wuts the G.O.D. track?
"Hellz wind Staff" is not on the album. It's on Wu Tang Forever.
Yup
The G.O.D. track =
When a motherfucker steps out his place
And gets slapped in his motherfuckin face
Just because the motherfucker tried to base
The G.O.D., the G.O.D.
And while I see his whole click passes by
Motherfuckers think they qualify
And for those niggaz want to try
The G.O.D., the G.O.D.
I always thought the track with G.O.D in the chorus was called Unexplained? Which one is Unexplained then if that one is Swordsman?
I aint got a clue!
I'ma find a proper track listing for it!
Cheers!

So I dunno, there's a track listed called Unexplained as well isnt there? Or am I goin' crazy?
Cheers!
No its not, Hellz Wind Staff aint on Liquid Swords.
Read the Wu Manual, RZA says that its listed as being on Liquis Swords but the track didnt actually materialise til Wu-Tang Forever.
Cheers!
I don't know if I believe that HWS/KH 10304 shit. Where did u get that? I don't remember anything in the booklet about that. Then again, I have not seen my booklet for that album in about 9 years.
yet its in the booklet right by Killah Hills, when you put the cd in a computer it says "Hells Wind Staff/Killah Hills 10304", and most websites got it listed as that too
Wu-International aint got it listed like that, it just says Killah Hillz 10304. RZA said in the Wu Manual that the track didnt exist til 1997 for Wu-Tang Forever.
Cheers!
So what is it a skit? Or is it a song that wasnt made until Wu Tang Forever and is incorrectly recognized as a skit? Hmmmmmm....
OK. I believe RZA.
I understand that its a song in Wu Forver, and what RZA said, but its still in the booklet, and the CD has it officially as "Hells Wind Staff/Killah Hills 10304"
This is my final thought on the matter...
The talking at the beginning of Killah Hillz is just a skit, no name to it, just an intro to Killah Hillz 10304...
Hellz Wind Staff is a track on Wu-Tang Forever, even though it is incorrectly listed on Liquid Swords.
Thats it.
Cheers!
Damn! Wu Tang Manual 2 should be called "Hells Wind Staff - The Real Story"
I give up. Im done
Also,
What about the track in the booklet called Unexplained? Where is that shit at?
Cheers!
did any of buy the fuckin cd?
fucking hell, this thread re occurs every few months, search for the earlier version.
the solution is, put the cd in your computer and itunes has the track listing correct.
unexplained is incorrectly highlighted on the back or some shit, i cant remember.
Liquid Swords
Duel Of The Iron Mic
Living In The World Today
Swordsmen
Cold World
Labels
4th Chamber
Shadowboxin'
Hell's Wind Staff/Killah Hills 10304
Investigative Reports

I Gotcha' Back
B.I.B.L.E. (Basic Instruction Before Leaving Earth)
anyway, search for the other threads about it, the issue was cleared up im pretty sure.
yeah uh, i really don't give a fuck what itunes thinks. here's the deal for those of you that dont actually own a copy of liquid swords
In the booklet both Hells Wind Staff and Killah Hills 10304 are listed as being before Investigative Reports. Hells Wind Staff is listed as featuring Killah Priest, Dreddy Kruger, and Masta Killa. Killah Hills 10304 is listed as coming after that song with no extra information. Anyone who has listened to the album can tell that Hells Wind Staff is obvioulsy not on it and that Killah Hills 10304 is the skit after Shadowboxin'. It is not 2 songs in one, Hells Wind Staff ended up being on Wu-Tang Forever.
If anyone needs me to explain Bulletproof Wallets i can do that too.
Those of you that think because itunes lists them as being the same track in one that they are should tell me what track number "The Sun" is listed on bulletproof wallets in their precious itunes. itunes is fucking retarded, i will never pay for music online, i purchase CDs cause the booklet matters, the artwork, the credits. does itunes give you production credits? probably not....fucking wack shit
OK, Ok I own the album, ya'll niggaz saw my thread. Thnx for clearing up shit.
I always thought it was kind of a shame that the actual "Hellz Wind Staff" song didn't have GZA on it. After kept hoping througout the second disk that he would show up just one more time on the album.
Has this mystery been solved? Ringz?
Something that has been overlooked throughout this entire "debate" is that you don't need to depend on the cd or the tracklistings pulled from internet databases when there have always been vinyl and cassette versions that feature properly sequenced tracklistings and don't include the missing "Unexplained."
The vinyl and cassette versions - as well as re-pressings and deluxe versions - have always listed "Hell's Wind Staff" as the skit preceding "Killah Hills 10304."
I'll relay the question to the great Bob Digi Digi...
btw, I remember reading an article around the time LS came out, and seem to remember that the journalist of the piece was recruited on the spot to play Mr Greco. The journalist described RZA getting into character to the point of pushing him against the wall, 'I think you DO know, mr Greco". Anyone else remember this? Anyone else old as fuck?
geez, i haven't listened to LS in full in years. i'll have to pull it out. when i made my earlier post, 10 years ago, i obviously hadn't read the thread. here are the booklet/covers, for those interested.

wow, i couldn't be gladder this faggit no longer posts here. one of the worst backpackers in wtc history.
anyway, listening to the track again (having not heard it for a while), doesn't the "skit" Hell's Wind Staff correspond with the liner notes (as in, it features MK, RZA and Dreddy providing "additional vocals") and then it follows that the next track is Killah Hills 10304 (not a skit, like this idiot said).
So to say the liner notes are wrong, is wrong, honestly. People are just relying on what was said in the manual, a book i've never and likely never will, read.
haha, right, well GZA seems to disagree:

“Hell’s Wind Staff / Killah Hills 10304”
This is another one of my favorites. It’s a very special song as far as the album’s concerned because it’s long as hell and has no hook. It’s up-tempo and is straight through. My cousin Life who did the hook on “Cold World” also did some singing on this too. This song has a lot of depth in terms of sound ’cause we used to layer weird shit over it.
For example, myself and Killah Priest were in the city one day with a portable ADAT recorder I just bought. We were just walking around, going to stores, buying water, juice, whatever, and just recording the random stuff, you know, just picking up sounds and shit. I think we recorded the Hells Angels riding by [us] too. RZA was in a restaurant talking to some guy, and we were banging forks on the tables, and we just recoded all those sounds too [laughs]. So we incorporated all that into the production.
As a song, it’s a street story, but not told in a regular street way. I’m talking about slanging on the block, but not just your average street dealer. These were more sophisticated cats. Some of it came from a documentary I saw on the infamous Pablo Escobar. He was sending judges intimate photos of their wives and things like that. I think this is [probably] my first real Mafioso track. It’s like a dense, short film.
The idea that the track Killah Hills 10304 is a skit, confuses me...
why is so difficult for people to understand that Hell's Wind Staff a.k.a Hell's Angels featuring KP and Dreddy Kruger in the background is a restaurant Skit on the on the Liquid Swords album which contains an interpolation of "Lost in Love" by New Edition, and Swordsman (Unexplained) is just one song. BTW that RZA verse on Hellz Wind Staff '97 from the Forever album does not sound how RZA use to sound in 95 so that verse was probably added afterwards.
