Run D.M.C., Run D.M.C., 1984 on Profile
Run D.M.C.‘s debut album on Profile, a NY area hip-hop label that was distributed by Arista, who would later reissue it. It was produced by Russell SImmons and Larry Smith, and recorded at Greene St. Recording in Soho.
Note the credit on the rear jacket to “Music by Orange Krush” – that’s Larry Smith and his Oberheim DMX drum machine.
What a profound debut – with “Hard Times” and “It’s Like That” ushering in a new style, it became a landmark in early hip-hop.
My copy, via A1 Records in NYC, is a repressing from the mid-late 80s based on the 1775 Broadway address for Profile Records in the rim text.

GEORGE S. HAYNES, 80
George S. Haynes, a very well known and important person in the Brattleboro area for decades, has died, following a short illness. He was the long-time head of Brattleboro Savings and Loan and he was a co-founder, with Larry Smith, of Project Feed the Thousands.
The death of George Haynes was announced in the WTSA Radio News. Searches online have not turned up another source so far: - not even in the WTSA News posted online.
I'll add a death notice once we have one.
