Reviewed 2008-05-18
Inspired by the 2006 Military coup in Fiji and political social issues worldwide, Flamenco guitar, Indian classical and modern Rock. World Fusion with a message.Nice sound with guitar, percussion, cello & vocals
**1: 2:09 male spoken word "the Military has taken over the Government" slow plucked sitar strings, fem vocal/wail, can go right into #2
***2: 3:50 Fast fast perc & guitar number then fem vocal/wail, more fast perc.
3: 4:37 guitar noodling, chorus & fem vocal, slow to mid tempo, tabla percussion, minimal fem wail, faster bigger sound towards end, bowed strings.
***4: 3:09 male spoken word in Spanish, guitar noodling, hand clap percussion, slow, then fem chorus faster
5: 4:32 drone intro, fem wail
***6: 6:05 slow plucked & strummed guitar, flute & drone @ 2:00 male spoken word, music builds up in density then a slow fade at end
****7: 2:34 male spoken word, "U.S. paratroopers have invaded Grenada" fast machine gun sounding percussion, low drone
*8: 4:19 nice slow to mid guitar picking, faster, fem vocal wail, tabla
