Help...from a non-looper

[yossari@abilene.com (Mike Miller)]

After being heavily influenced by the Fripp soundscape recordings 
released in the last 2 years, I have a strong desire to experiment with 
the looping technique/style.

so...I would appreciate ANY advice/suggestions on the following 
questions:

1)What BASIC equipment/devices should one begin with??
2)and What are the approximate prices on this equipment??
3)Where can I purchase them??

Please mailto:yossari@abilene.com

All comments would be highly appreciated. Hopefully, looping will 
someday be brought to my sleepy West TX town.
