Hey! nice weekend...

saw Zap mama in philly on friday. Good show!
borderline cheesy at times (like those matallic hats
they were wearing...looked like a cross between
mushroom tops and toilet seats.. eh)..., but overall
very effective, vivacious, infectious, and
occasionally touching combination of afropop,
acapella, and right-on-time beats. I've been listening
to them for a few years and always thought their stuff
would sound great with jungle. It's really gratifying
to hear this finally happening! I really had a good
time and I left the show inspired. (I swear to mother
earth that at one point Marie Dunne (sp?) was vocally
imitating a data stream...) Plus, I think I've fallen
in love with the girl who played bass...*and* a Nord
*and* mallets *and* sang AND beatboxed!!! *pitter
patter* Definitely worth catching this show if it
comes to your town. (midwest/subterror kids: they
will be in detroit.)

anyway, I would love to get the new album on vinyl,as
well as a couple other luaka bop items, but their
website is no help (just links you to amazon.com or
something, where I can't find vinyl...am I just being
stupid?) and I can't seem to dig up a phone number.

Any suggestions?

thanks!
stephanie
