Information: Everyone owns a record that Jah Wobble has played on.The maverick bass player first found his musical feet with Public Image Ltd ( PIL),creating melodic bass lines as striking and memorable as the Metal Box they came in.
Jah Wobble soon found himself on his own path of musical discovery.he worked with Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebzeit of Can and U2's The Edge on two albums "Betrayal" and "Snake Charmer".
These recordings hinted at the future " world music " collaborations which were to follow.
For this album,Wobble pursues yet another tangent,whereby he sets some of William Blake's poems to his trademark hallucinatory soundscapes.
Blake was a 19th century artist,poet,mystic and author of " Tyger Tyger " and "Jerusalem ".
He made little distinction between the concious and the unconscious,a similar line that Jah Wobble follows as a musician.
This inspirational recording was first released on the All Saints label in 1996.
