Witch – Witch (Including Janet)
Archival reissue of the Afro-prog- psych Zamrock masterpiece presented for the first time ever in a yellow vinyl pressing. WITCH’s musical arc is contained to a five year span and, in retrospect, is a logical one. The band’s fifth and final rock album – released before the band splintered and an offshoot band traveled to Zimbabwe to record and release disco albums – makes use of traditional Zambian rhythms and folk melodies alongside progressive rock movements. Like Lukombo Vibes before it, it is in the Osibas “afro-rock” style.
“Electrified by a diet of James Brown, the Stones and Deep Purple, WITCH were the stadium-filling kings of 70s Zamrock. – **** MOJO.
