Various Artists - Zarathustra's Revenge

Cover art

I was really looking forward to this one, and when I laid my eyes on the cover, a collage of artwork from various Italian rock albums, the first thing I though was, "Cool, Semiramis...

Virgil Moorefield - The Temperature in Hell Is over Three Thousand Degrees

Forget that you ever heard of Virgil's last Cuneiform outing Distracions on the Way to the King's Party, because this album simply has nothing to do with that whatsoever. Virgil is...

The World Comes to Seattle —
WOMAD USA 1998

Cover art

The first WOMAD (World Of Music Art and Dance) festival was in 1982, inspired in large part by Peter Gabriel’s love of music from around the world. Since then, there have been festivals in various locations in Europe, Africa, and Asia on a regular basis, but aside from a short tour of one-day mini-festivals in 1993, WOMAD has never gained a foothold in North America. The festival has finally found an American home in Redmond, Washington at Marymoor Park, not far from Seattle. 1998’s WOMAD USA is the first of many projected annual festivals, and if they can all be as interesting and varied as this one, I wish them a long and healthy life. One of the things that sets WOMAD apart from other festivals is the chance to interact with the artists in workshops, discussions and interviews.
