Just to clarify ( the internet can misrepresent at times )..
I posted my utter shock that Matador is picking up BOC for US release.
My shock was genuine but not a critique nor disapproval.
It's *great* that they got 'em!  I'm just blown away as it is a bold move.
Props to them.

Blackalicious availability was asked about.
On the *retail* end, I dunno.  But check out these wholesalers, who dominate
the indy Hip Hop game:

Fat Beats- NYC
BUDS - NYC
Sandbox - NYC (? ) Jersey (?) they're an internet Hip Hop source...maybe
they sell directly (?)

I don't have numbers; look 'em up. Remember, they are wholesalers who probably
can't get stuff to your door, but they probably can help you.
Good luck!

Peter

np: Darrin Verhagen - Soft Ash

( for those of you with a taste for minimal/experimental/dark
ambient/concrete/electroacoustic....
check out the Dorobo label from Australia...*incredible* stuff and nice
artwork, too. )
