I can't find much other info on this, but it appears there is a limited reissue available for order here?

Can anyone confirm if this is legit? -
Where the hell is vinyl release (normally available in Europe (Poland :)) Really hope that Hide Out will release it in a widely available edition. -

Edited 12 years agoThis is a milestone in modern-era hip-hop. Nujabes was one of the key icons of instrumental hip-hop, along with the late J Dilla, Flying Lotus, and Prefuse 73. Jazz hasn't sounded this good on a hip-hop record since the original "They Reminisce Over You". The lyrics are solid, and sometimes spectacular. "Horn in the Middle" is a great, classy dancefloor tune, "Blessing It" is vividly catchy, and the album's flow is superb. Can't say enough to praise this album and its extraordinary production quality.
