Kalima vs. Sarah Vaughn

Yesterday I was at a friend's place and happened upon some people preparing for a weekend garage sale in their alley. I rifled through the records and found a great load of stuff (Marianne Faithful, Kate Bush, Tom Waits, tons of Nina Simone records, Big Top Pee Wee soundtrack, Mike Oldfield - ok, the last two weren't so hot)... Anyway, I got this Sarah Vaughn record from '79 titled Copacabana, the second song she sings, The Smiling Hour (Abre Alas), is spectacular, and doing some info, I found that this group Kalima recorded a version of it, which I'd like to hear... Anyone have an mp3, or know if this is still in print?

All of Kalima's music recently got reissued by LTM. They were on the Factory label and were comprised partially of members of Swamp Children (who were comprised partially of members of A Certain Ratio).

Here's their catalogue. They've been bashed a lot but I really love "Whispered Words".
