The Metroplex title is still in print but the Kool Kat
record is pretty rare and valuable ($20-30). The track 
on the a-side, The Passage, is one of my favorite
detroit techno tracks.

There are acutally two new Juan Atkins releases: TVT label
dj mix and a new album under his Infiniti guise on the german
Tresor label. Since the dj mix is on TVT, there might not be
a vinyl pressing because many of the larger US labels no
longer press vinyl.
