Subject: Cypress Hill name origin
(Due of my memory error I accidentially posted this message also in 80's conversation.. sorry 'bout the inconviniece).
Anyhow, can anyone out there tell me the origin of Cypress Hill name? Does it have multiple meanings or is it just "hillfull of cypressess", which I somewhat doubt.. Feel free to mail me if you can tell more about the origin of that name.

"Hillfull of cypresses"? ??? LOL! No, according to a pretty reliable book I own w/ an entry on the group, they are based in Los Angeles, and the name was taken from Cypress St. in the L.A. suburb of South Gate...

Some interesting information, 80smusicfreak. Even my favourite Heathen World has no information on it. As always, thankyou.
