Notes

Thousands upon thousands of years ago Man discovered that hitting two sticks together again and again caused an exciting sound...and rhythm was born.
Then he learned that by blowing into shells he could produce variable sounds...and melody was created. Peter he realised that vines stretched and plucked produced new kinds of sounds...and harmony was invented.
From these beginnings came the many instruments Man developed until well into the Twentieth Century - when electricity wrought miracles - adding new dimensions to the music spectrum.
Conversely, and in line with Modern Man's quest to find his beginnings in that dim and distant past his music seeks the missing link with his origins...the roots that lie dormant in each and every one of us...the hidden desires that 'Civilization' has suffocated.

If you want to discover your roots...
LISTEN TO...DANCE TO...LIVE TO...

    Jeez, I have no idea who these dudes are, but they sure are cookin’ up one helluva funkified storm on this amazing album.

    Pounding tribal drums, funky bongo’s, steamin’ horns, and searing acid-fried guitar explorations are what this puppy is all about. It’s kinda soundtracky and these guys are probably session muso’s letting off some steam, but man they are on fire!

    Check out the intense blast of "Black Rite", which erupts into an orgy of furious drums, horns, and enormous guitar licks; damn intense stuff!
