Various Artists Voodoo Mambosis And Other Tropical Diseases 02

This is the 2nd volume in the new Voodoo Mambosis And Other Tropical Diseases series on Stag-O-Lee. Four volumes are planned. The original records come from the record box of our esteemed friend Duke Jens-O Matic, who has been a graphic designer, internationally acclaimed DJ, collector and hunter for decades. Jens-O-Matic was there when we first breathed life into Stag-O-Lee and he delivered four volumes of the wonderful Jim Jam Gems 10” series. Each stylistically self-contained. He is currently working on further Jim Jam Gems volumes, but is struggling with the liner notes because “one has an educational mission!”.
Now to the record at hand: What does a friend of the obscure 7"es do when he already has everything in the field of Rhythm & Blues etc.? He is looking for other fields of activity. Different countries, different music, different influences. So does our Jens-O-Matic. He made a little trip around the world here, let his new love of cumbia flow in, mixed in a pinch of voodoo, reactivated some old blues heroes, plus some exotica - it never hurts. The great art is to combine these on paper disparate elements in such a way that something unique and consistently exciting is created. Voodoo Mambosis And Other Tropical Diseases is the best example of this! The cover, also designed by Jens-O-Matic, is a homage to the groundbreaking '84 compilation Rockabilly Psychosis and the Garage Disease
