On this day in 1985, beatbox aficionado Doug E. Fresh along with his Get Fresh Crew (MC Ricky D aka Slick Rick, Barry Bee, and Chill Will), released the 12" single with "The Show" and "La Di Da Di" on Reality.  The joint has since been considered a classic.

"The Show" peaked at #4 on the R&B chart and reached the top five in the UK.  It sold over half a million copies in the US and was the best selling rap single in Europe.

"The Show" was later featured as a remix on Doug E. Fresh's debut album Oh, My God! in 1986.
