It was released about a year ago with a very limited pressing. No label information, catalog code consists of a string of numbers and letters bearing no resemblance to any known labels' catalog code. It created some conversation around who was behind the release, and it was ultimately confirmed (from Fitton himself) that it really is by Darrel Fitton (i.e. Bola). Last time I paid attention, it went for over 50USD on eBay. Six tracks, playable at various speeds, one on each side of the 3x12" package stuffed in a 12"-size ziploc bag. Very heavy vinyl, black labels with various geometric shapes in white on each label, thus the name ``Shapes''. Reviews are hard to come by since availability is not that good. I got mine around 2000-02-17 and no, I'm not selling. It is generally not available outside extortionate cash-in "auctions", so frequent eBay if you'd like to have a physical copy, or try Napster (or other similar P2P networks) if you don't have any qualms about obtaining and using unauthorised digital copies.
