I had aquarius ship this out to me. I was plesantly suprised...It's not like Eric's scratchhappyland tape (all cut, all day)...He effectively fits in with a pretty good band, making the over all sound very interesting. $6 with the shipping...a good deal as far as I'm concerned. Oh yeah, it has a small rectangular sticked on it merely stating "with Kid Koala" which cracked me up. Best, -Ma'er... - > BULLFROG with KID KOALA 7" 4.50 > While turntablist whiz Kid Koala is still working on his full length > solo record, here's something to tide us fans over: the debut 7" from Kid > Koala's band Bullfrog, a five piece group wherein Kid Koala does scratching > duties. Reportedly Bullfrog cut a plate of original vocals, then during the > recording, Kid K scratched them right into the mix! The effect is > surrealistic, subtle and very very loopy, a perfect foil for the music, two > tracks of which sound like a combination of turntablist fun mixed up with > rare-groove/sweet-soul from the seventies.
