      Okay this needs a repress, these prices are getting a bit ridiculous

          I'm guessing that there are no differences between matrix numbers on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd presses? I for one am really glad that the label is taking this approach and seemingly pushing the incorrigible delinquents out of the flippers' market.

            Direct from the label - they will keep pressing this LP while there is demand - 2nd press is 800 copies so should be easily available.

                Sold out on bandcamp now too. Is there any UK/EU stores/discogs sellers who will be receiving this?

                  A future Holy Grail ! Somewhere between Gil Scott Heron, James Mason, Col Nolan Soul Syndicate Live or Matthew Larkin Cassell. This record never came out in the past, it's a first press. Perfect from start to finish. Amazing.

                    Whow! Smooth! Very nice mixture of different genres mixed together: Jazz, latin, lounge, funk, latin and a bit of cosmic-vibes. This one has sort of timeless ethereal sound, funny considering it was recorded in 1984. With those instruments and a sense of style, I guess you can't go wrong.
                    In some sense these songs sound like cuts from some odd 70's soundtrack LP.
