They did a second* CD (also very good), and then split.  The two were then
reissued as a dbl-CD release, and now all of them are hard to find I'd
guess. The one guy from Ship of Fools went on to play with the band Nine
Invisibles that did at least one CD on Delerium IIRC.  It's just ok, a
little more trancey stuff like all the other 'maturing' festy-psych outfits.
The Kava Kava singer I remember made a guest appearance on that album, and
that track was one of the better ones I think.

*unless Out there Somewhere was the second, in which case they had done one
before.  Can't remember titles very well anymore.
