Hawaii people (all one of you--including me) take note: The album was recorded
in Hawaii. Why do you think it's called da shack, brah.

Anyway, I listened to the album a few weeks ago and noticed it has a different
feel than their last album. Sound-wise, definitely more "funky" (at least,
consciously so) than experimental (though they still bow down to Larry Young's
Fuel<---if you don't know who I'm talking about, then record collectors take
note). I like it, though.
