Corbett Vs. Dempsey present a reissue of
Suns Of Arqa
's
Revenge Of The Mozabites
, originally released on Rocksteady Records in 1980. One of the key ensembles in the history of what is now referred to as world music, Suns Of Arqa began in 1979 with
Revenge Of The Mozabites
, the brainchild of
Michael Wadada
. With a ground base of dub -- in both aesthetic and method -- made palpable by master dub rhythm section of
Style Scott
on drums and
Lizard Logan
on bass, and produced in tandem with future
On-U Sound
maestro
Adrian Sherwood
, Wadada built an incredibly eclectic and imaginative program, touching on flamenco and Irish music, as well as a Suns Of Arqa touchstone, the intersection of Indian music and dub reggae. The results are unlike anything heretofore heard, and
Revenge Of The Mozabites
remains one of the unsung classics of hybrid musicality to emerge from the post-punk ethos, having exerted an unexamined influence on British music in the '80s. Upon finding a copy of the ultra-rare original LP in 1982, for instance,
Peter Gabriel
promptly booked Suns Of Arqa to the first WOMAD festival. This release marks the first time any of Suns Of Arqa's music has been released in the US, and
Revenge Of The Mozabites
is restored to its original glory, with the packaging as it was in 1979, additional photos of the band, and three bonus tracks -- dubs and edits from
Hyphen
--, everything remastered from original tapes. Recorded in 1979 at Berry Street Studio, London and Cargo Studio, Rochdale. Personnel: Michael Wadada - esraj, sitar; Style Scott - drums; Lizard Logan - bass;
Kalu Zeria
- table;
Aziz Zeria
- harmonium;
Big Red
- violin;
Bubblers
- piano;
Mothmen
- cuica, percussion;
Maria Aiawa
- vocals;
Mark Stone
- flamenco guitar;
I. Green
- bassoon;
Tony Sullivan
- banjo;
Moot Beret
- Chinese shawm.
