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...
