Thanks @AndyP , very good!
It just shows how good 3 guitars and a set of drums can sound in the right hands. Lou was and his band were at their peak. Great album.
Taken from the group’s Bandcamp page. The limited edition run of 300 but there are 80 out 1200 standard copies left.
" In Islamic philosophy, each person has an aspect of the Self called the “Nafs” which is divided into multiple layers. Every day, a person enters into a spiritual battlefield with their dark side, their lowly desires, and Satan. Satanic Nafs is thus the lowest level of the self, due the love of oneself and evil desires. Achieving spiritual transformation involves a constant struggle against the lower nature of the self (Satanic Nafs). This struggle led JAUBI to discover the complex Qur’anic and philosophical concept of “Nafs”, which became the major conceptual driving force behind the all-new and original music."

What the Dave (sorry) or the similarity.
Back in the day we all called him Dave Gilmour now it seems to be strictly David Gilmour.
It’s an Arabic word/term, it is ever present in the Qu’ran, and refers to the self or the ego. I think that’s the best translation.
He’s apparently more mature these days.
Work week is finally done! This album comes to mind immediately. Feel like how it looks and like the way it sounds, too! KT Tunstall, drastic fantastic!
Enjoying first listen on stream of Paul Weller Fat Pop.
Bit concerned about the vinyl pressing though, see my post on the What Was The Last Vinyl You Bought thread
That’s a great album! I’d love to see a quality vinyl reissue… the originals are way overpriced and it’s a crapshoot buying them online.
Joining the Transformer fest started by @TheKevster yesterday I think
No reason, I’ve never really listened much to the Velvet Underground or solo Lou, with this album being the exception
