    I had the same problem. He said he could get it in though, but it would cost loads and take a long time.

    The guy at my local record store had trouble ordering it as well, but i live in Europe, so maybe thats the problem there. He also told me most vinyl copies were off centre and it effects the sound, is this true? I just got the CD copy instead.
    Maybe you can order it directly from the Ubiquity site.

    My vinyl copy looks/sounds good, no problems here.

    My reissue copy was warped when I bought it new.

    i asked the guys from hiphopvinyl.de if they could take the reish into their catalogue. Few days later they had it in stock.
    But i got the last (and only?) copy last week.

    Have you guys heard about the NEW Arthur Verocai?

    straight from Farout recordings mailer:

    "If you've heard Arthur Verocai's debut self-titled album (it was reissued by
    Ubiquity in 2004), then you'll know why we are so excited to be releasing a
    new studio album from one of the best Brazilian arrangers there is. If you
    don't know Arthur then imagine David Axelrod, Shuggie Otis and Charles
    Stepney all jamming together in Brazil and you'd be halfway there. He has
    arranged records for Brazilian legends Jorge Ben, Elizeth Cardoso,
    Gal Costa, Quarteto em Cy, MPB 4 and Marcos Valle. He's the man! On this
    album he's joined by Luis Alves, Jose Bertrami, Robertinho Silva, Ivan
    Conti, Tavito, Itamar, Chacal & more plus a 17 piece string ensemble and
    8 piece horn section."

    Sounds plenty interesting.

    I don't know if it's the same album you're talking about, but he released an album in 2002, Saudade demais, that you can listen to here ; click on "Clique pra ouvir" under the CD picture, and then click on "Ou??a" (in red).







    Peace

    I just got a sealed copy and when I opened it up and starting playing it, it was skipping all over the place. After almost throwing the record out the window in disgust, I played it a few more times and it started playing through. It was just dirty in the grooves and needed a little needle time. Phew.

    Oh, I got one off GEMM. Blackandread was the seller. Not sure if there's more. Definitely worth picking up a reish if you can snag one. Now who wants to sell me an OG?

    I got my copy in this week (of the reissue). Wow, another SS home run. That record is fuckin' GREAT. It has a real 70s soul soundtrack feel to it.

    Ferrari, mine skipped a bit too in a coupla places.

    You can get these still off the Ubiquity site and my homeboy ordered one from Dusty "nice one" Groove this week.

    then flip it back to the beginning and play it one more time...One of the few records that I've played front to back 2 times in a row.

    on constant heavy rotation since...

    (though there is indeed some nasty skipping here and there)

    nasty skipping on a new reish?

    nasty because it skips at the good parts.

    and i hope the skipping is because of the dirty(?) grooves, as mentioned by DJ Ferrari. Plus i think i heard that the quality of the reish-grooves is not that good...

    still: this record is ??ber-facemelting
