Corbett Vs. Dempsey present a reissue of
Suns Of Arqa
's
Seven
, originally released on Arka Sound in 1987. Perhaps the pinnacle of the Suns Of Arqa discography,
Seven
was released in 1987 and was in fact the band's fifth LP. With its stunning cover design and outlandishly ambitious sound, steeped in dub but festooned with plainchant and Indian music, it was alone in the market, its closest relatives maybe
African Head Charge
or
New Age Steppers
, but with a host of original ideas and musical intersections and an incredible, almost unthinkable cast of participants. Amongst the vocalists is the British singer-songwriter
Helen Watson
, punk poet
John Cooper Clarke
, talk-over star
Prince Hammer
, and comedic genius
Professor Stanley Unwin
, all of whom offer their unique and unconventional words to the dub stew. A powerhouse Jamaican rhythm section is filtered through sitar, shenai, santoor, and tabla, hurdy-gurdy and pennywhistle, strings and saxophone, all orchestrated by the inimitable
Michael Wadada
, founding father of Suns Of Arqa. On this reissue,
Seven
's first time available in the US, the original LP cover has been restored to its initial glory, and the original music is available complete in one package for the first time, adding five extra tracks not included on the LP. Recorded at Sawmill Studio, Cornwall, and Elephant Studio, London.
