Yoko Kanno Jazz Band Scores?

Hey, I'm trying to find a fully-transcribed arrangement (or hopefully the original) of "Tank!" the opening theme song to 'Cowboy Bebop' for my jazz band. Any ideas where to look? I've been searching all my usual places for ordering sheet music, and haven't had any luck. I've tried putting Kanno's name in search engines like Google and have gotten basically nothing back.

The best I've done is I've found some guitar tab for it, and I found a couple piano solos that have apparently been transcribed by fans. I need the full jazz band arrangement, though, and I don't have time to transcribe it myself. Any ideas where to look? Anyone live anywhere near Japan, where they might have it in sheet music form?

I managed to find a little. This.
Cowboy Bebop Sheet Music

At last, sheet music for a Kanno score has been officially published. The "Cowboy Bebop Bandscore", containing Kanno's band arrangements for the tracks Tank, Rush, Space Lion, Cats on Mars, Memory, and Real Folk Blues, is available from Movic, ISBN #4896014138, retailing for 2000 yen.

I can't read Japanese worth shit though, so I can't help you out with that last one.

Just an odd thought and it might not even be there either but try your local comic book store/card store with all the nerdy stuff. Every town seems to have one and they usualy have all sorts of stuff based on anime.
