Yes sorry : one more time about Zeuhl Müzik !
A major () Update for MAGMA discography :
Unfortunately listed as a Vander solo album, Wurdah Itah is one of the most beautifull and magic Magma records.
Composed by Christian Vander and performed by the core of the band Magma this opus represents the 2rd movement of the trilogy " Theusz Hamtaak " (1rd movement " Theusz Hamtaak ", 3rd movement " Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh ").
These three movements have been recorded randomly.
First used as soundtrack of the film "Tristan et Iseult " (Yvan Lagrange) Wurdah Itah " sounds " very accoustic : piano, bass, the wonderfull and precise drum and the voices, voices, voices…
Expurgated and clean (no horns for example) this is anyway a great and typical " Magma material " !
First Recording : "Tristan et Yseult" Barclay 80528 (LP) 1974 [France]
Re-issue : " Wurdah Itah " Seventh REX IX (CD) 1989 [France]
