now available in a never before seen color variant. The audio is nigh-perfect ?? restored and
remastered from the original master tapes.
WITCH??s musical arc is contained to a five year span and, in retrospect, is a logical one.

Zambian recording industry ?? are exuberant experiments in garage rock, and are as influenced
by the Rolling Stones as they are James Brown. In The Past, their second album, is the perfect
follow-up for anyone exposed to the WITCH band through their landmark Introduction. - OPAQUE GREEN VINYLNow-Again Records archival reissue.
