Double 180gm audiophile vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket sleeve includes etched D-side and PVC protective sleeve. The Hurricane tells the story of the wrongly convicted for a triple murder boxer Rubin 'The Hurricane' Carter. A powerful collection of songs is integrated in this epic movie classic. The tracklist consists of song like the impressive hip-hop version of Bob Dylan's 'Hurricane'. Dylan's track is also included, just like soul, jazz and hip-hop songs by Ray Charles, Etta James, Black Star and The Roots. The musical statements are translated to the storyline of the movie. As a companion piece to the movie it's a worthwhile album to have. The Hurricane is a 1999 biographical film starring Denzel Washington as the former middleweight champion Rubin 'The Hurricane' Carter. He was convicted for a triple homicide in a bar in Paterson, New Jersey. The film also depicts his life in prison and how he was freed by the love and compassion of a teenager from Brooklyn named Lesra Martin and his Canadian foster family.
