Actually 'It's a Jungle....' came first. Here's the order from what I remember
from the top of my head on CD:

Notes From the Underground
It's a Jungle In Here
David Fiuczyinki (bad spelling) w/ Medesky 'Lunar Crush' (<---I don't remember
the title. This album is kind of more fusion-y stuff)
Friday Afternoon In the Universe

Yeah, last Tuesday actually... their new release is Shack-Man, on
Rykodisc's Grammavision imprint is well worth getting. Less jazzy than
'It's a jungle in here', more laid-back funk. I can personally recommend
it, and it also got a good review in SNC #38. The album previous to it,
'Friday Afternoon In The Universe' is also dope, especially for hammond
fanatics.
