Mr Scruff full length debut for Ninja 'Keep It Unreal' isn't out until 
June. Next single 'Get a Move On' is out next month. I don't know what 
Scruff CD your talking about. He's got loads of other releases on various 
labels, one of which is probably what you're looking for. No other full 
length record on Ninja.
