Maybe this is better suited to a weekend finds thread... but I'm kinda in the dark on this one, info is scarce... I've just found a black vinyl press, blue cover, of the Strato Zoo LP and understand that a numbered blue vinyl press exists as well..... can anyone clarify the difference between these presses as well as possibly provide some info on this session.... my understanding is that Strato Zoo is a studio in Switzerland that cuts very limited LP's of sessions recorded on their premises.... what totally throws me off is this ish was cut in '95?!?!! Knowledge need be dropped on this biz...

    post a pic and mp3z or you softbatch

  • there was a blue vinyl issue on ebay few days ago, now i can't find it anymore. maybe it ended early...
    as far as is know they pressed only 66 (or 69) copies of the blue vinyl issue,
    possibly only a few hundred of the black vinyl issue...
    a collector item for sure 'cause it's quite rare but musically
    it isn't really what i dig... a matter of taste of course...

    but this 7"ep on the same Strata Zoo label from 1996 i really recommend:

    Thanks for all the info, schoggi!

    That 7" is nice, sounds pretty raer, a promo giveaway?!! Do you have a copy?

    Looks like that limited blue vinyl copy you saw on eBay is still up... Academy LP's outta NYC... always comin up with heat...
