Is 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. The band's first two, self-produced albums - released in unison with the birth of the commercial 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.

The band's fifth and final rock album - released before the band splintered and an offshoot band traveled to Zimbabwe to record and release disco albums -makes use of traditional Zambian rhythms and folk melodies alongside progressive rock movements. Like Lukombo Vibes before it, it is in the Osibas "afro-rock" style.
