Reference MOV3045
Limited edition of 2000 individually numbered copies on purple 180g vinyl
1974 - 2nd movement from the THEUSZ HAMTAAHK TRILOGY
WURDAH ITAH was recorded in April 1974, just one month before the sessions which produced KOHNTARKOSZ. It forms the second movement of THEUSZ HAMTAAHK, an epic work in three movements of which MEKANIK DESTRUKTIW KOMMANDOH, recorded a year earlier by MAGMA, forms the final part. Performed by the core players in MAGMA at that time - Christian VANDER (piano, drums, vocals), Jannick TOP (bass), Klaus BLASQUIZ (vocals, percussion) and Stella VANDER (vocals) - WURDAH ITAH is music stripped down to its bare essence. Although a total contrast to the splendour and orchestral power of M.D.K., it nevertheless has just as great rhythmic power and surprising vocal lyricism, unquestionably marked by the claws of MAGMA
Recorded and mixed April 4th, 5th& 8th 1974 at STUDIO DE MILAN (Paris) by Jean-Pierre BAMEULLE
