Live early version of Matigari before the lyrics were written. Kirk, Bryon, Anthony & Lee. Matigari is a book by Ngugi that Paul Price turned me on to. Some context from Ngugi’s bio: While Ngugi was in Britain for the launch and promotion of Devil on the Cross, he learned about the Moi regime’s plot [...]

Thanks to all the folks at The Cave for a lovely show and to Fontana for playing a great opening set. Really enjoyed Witchita Lineman, which Anthony occasional sings (slowly and in an ungodly eerie, deep baritone) during breaks at Lud rehearsal. You know I need a small vacaaaaashunnnn.
